Pros

Qualcomm is a truly technology company. If you are an engineer and is thrilled to work on cutting edge technology each morning, Qualcomm is the place. I worked at a division called Qualcomm MEMS Technologies, which produces leading edge MEMS products for the display industry. The parent company invested well and provided us with many opportunities to experiment and come up with the best ideas. This was a great reason to work for the company. Secondly, the working environment & infrastructure was absolutely great. The company was generous in designing the space, as opposed to several companies which cut corners.

Cons

Most of the managers are engineers, and not well trained managers - so you may not get the best people managers.

Pros

Great design team. Learn a lot in the project. Great resources for self motivated technical improvement.

Cons

Big wave of talented engineers leaving in some critical departments. CEO lacks responsibility on the company development. CEO and CFO have been selling their stocks a lot every year.
