      Good place to grow in skill but not in salary

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Work with cutting-edge technology * Very talented and smart people * Little micro-managing * Good perks and environment to work in All in all, the atmosphere is great. It can sometimes require long hours but it never feels grueling; partly because the projects are interesting.

      Cons

      * Pay tends to be lower than industry average * Product roadmap and strategic planning often puts more pressure on engineers than necessary. This especially applies to canceled products that only serve as a time-waste that could've been better spent * Compute resources aren't as plentiful as it could be and hampers how fast things can get done

      Great Place to Work

      Senior staff software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very generous compensation and benefits. Management really knows what they are doing and treats employees with respect. Very high level of competence in Raleigh location. Lots of potential for growth and advancement. Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, cellphone modem and other technologies are well-respected industry-wide. New research is well-funded and supported. Don't have to worry about layoffs since we are in a virtually recession-proof growth area.

      Cons

      There is a lot of bureaucracy associated with doing anything that has legal consequences (result of emphasis on importance of protecting Qualcomm CDMA and other IP). This can make it difficult and time-consuming to communicate with customers and contractors or work with open source software.
