Pros

A leader in commercial telecommunications. Initially, Qualcomm really took care of its employees and gave them means to develop their skills. Qualcomm offered very competitive salary, health benefits, and on-the-job training.

Cons

In my opinion, Qualcomm is lagging in the innovation field. At the will of its investors, Qualcomm relies on making its majority revenue from selling its top-tier chips. Consequently, its hard to propose an R&D project that falls outside the scope of selling its integrated solutions without it being shot down. Work-life balance is skewed towards work Recent layoffs were handled poorly
