Pros

Working with true visionaries like Franklin Antonio, Paul Jacobs, Roger Martin were a once in a lifetime experience that lasted 10 years for me.

Cons

All the visionaries are gone. The executives now discuss shareholder value rather than innovation or new technology. This is a short term profit driven company and not a technology driven company. The result - a stock price less than it was 10 years ago.

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.
