Pros

Great benefits. Non QCT has great work life balance. Very good culture and very understanding management for the most part

Cons

No other alternates in San Diego means some high handedness and underpaid employees. Top Heavy. Some old timers in the company for long periods have made lot of money from stocks

Pros

Great benefits, the pay is like okay. Some cool reimbursement programs and health centers on campus

Cons

Career progression and culture varies extremely depending on department. Some parts almost set you up for failure and it's difficult to gain new skills. Lots of qualcomm teams are too scared to explore new technologies and migrate to state of the art services and are comfortable in sticking with old technology for familiarity. Also, HR does nothing if a coworker makes you uncomfortable.
