Pros

Great benefits, and resources, senior people are fairly well compensated. Lot of interesting work, great colleagues, good diversity, strong industry presence, sustained competitive advantage.

Cons

Company is becoming too large, and top heavy. I feel there is a fair amount of dead wood, some house cleaning would be useful. Engineers have relatively little room for lateral movements. Lots of duplication. Would like product management, marketing to be more competent. Stock price has been up and down over the last 10 years, but relatively flat (or even down), some competitors did better. The management can be very agressive in goals, w/o backing up with resources. This creates a lot stress on the team. However, this varies from division to division. QCT (CDMA Technologies) is the busiest place to work at, but also the safest in terms of job security.

Qualcomm grows fast. Really high technology. Good geeks. Not huge pressure. People Re respected. Communitions go pretty well. Good pay. It is a OK company to work

No room fro grow. Tedius work. Peole who talk get promoted, not people who work. Many mid-engineers do not know what they are dealing with.
