Pros

Interesting engineering work but understaffed.

Cons

After 5 years at Qualcomm my experience was mixed. It depends very much on the specifics of your group and management. If you join as an expert in your field you may find yourself working with inexperienced generalists who do not know what they are doing and rely on your expertise but who are then able to take all the glory. This is compounded by racial cliques in some small teams. From my management I got very mixed messages, heaping praise on the one hand then stabbing me in the back when it counted. It sounds nutty but In the end I encountered a pervasive culture of dishonesty from my managers up to and including senior HR that soured me to this company.

Pros

fairly good pay, good faculty, nice location. Your first impression on your management determine your future in this company. Don't stupid thing, then you can stay as long as you want.

Cons

few chance to grow, not good working atmosphere, if you are good at presenting instead of hard working, you might fit this company.
