Pros

Location: San Diego is one of the best location you can work in US.

Cons

GPU is probably the worst department in Qualcomm headed by bunch of clowns. Promotion is only given to sycophants. Unless you are close the the small circle which controls the department, you stand no chance. People in this circle are one of the dumbest in the industry who will eventually blame their failure (almost every project is a certain failure) on employees. Annoyingly, You will always be compared against these people by your manager. Managers are the worst, at times abusive. Outright liars. If you are on immigration , STAY AWAY: Every single day your manager will remind of the HUGE favor done to you by filing your immigration. After all the mental tortue you get every week, your pay is one of the lowest in semiconductor industry.

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.
