Pros

1) Good Salary, even as a fresher, best in telecommunication domain 2) Good exposure to a lot of cut-edge technologies, esp in mobile domain 3) If you are lucky, few people are very helping and polite in solving all your doubts

Cons

1) Culture has went bad over recent years and a lot of work overload is being faced by employees, work life balance completely lost. Also politics among teams has led to an adverse work distribution among employees. 2) Only testing and debugging work given to freshers, hardly any development work done, bad esp for people with CS background 3) Salary hikes are pretty bad compared to other companies in the same salary domain. 4) Collaborating with US guys is a big issue, you have to work and collaborate till late hours everyday, which leads to a very bad work-life balance and you just cant feel free even after coming home

Pros

Qualcomm provides some of the best benefits in the industry from ESPP to Healthcare. They even have an on campus health center. Work culture is also very healthy with 360 degree reviews and a dedicated line manager to further career opportunities.

Cons

Promotions are generally slow and it takes longer to climb the corporate ladder. Base compensation is a bit lower than the industry average.
