      Pros

      Never boring...Qualcomm is a place you can make your own career success by embracing the culture of constant change and not holding on to old processes.Great benefits, great facilities, best place to work in San Diego.

      Cons

      It never slows down...Always more work than people to do it. incredible pressure to meet unrealistic goals & schedules at times. While that challenge can make a job exciting, it can also take a toll on you when it never lets up. Long hours have become the norm.

      Big company with limited career opportunities unless you work a lot of overtime

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - successful company with good financial status - pockets of good people and good teams - small areas with challenging design work - flexible in work hours and schedule

      Cons

      - a fair number of engineers have limited social and teamwork skills (to be expected based on the interview process) - work is not very challenging, mostly mindless bug fixes and porting - has fully transitioned to a big company that rewards heavy overtime but not anything else (wasn't this way originally) - promotes weak leaders who attempt to use fear (shouting, etc.) to motivate - highly directed work, low creativity, very strict adherence to processes (many of them weak or even detrimental to the business) - feedback for improvement no longer considered by upper management
