Pros

Lots of important problems to solve. There's commitment to open source since it's central to Qualcomm products (Android).

Cons

Difficult if not impossible to work directly in open source projects. Be prepared to work anonymously and to not be able to build credibility in open source projects where meritocracy is the name of the game (pretty much all).

Pros

Great design team. Learn a lot in the project. Great resources for self motivated technical improvement.

Cons

Big wave of talented engineers leaving in some critical departments. CEO lacks responsibility on the company development. CEO and CFO have been selling their stocks a lot every year.
