Qualcomm reviews

Merciless workload, which is not a problem by itself, but in many roles, that hard work resulted in limited intellectual pay-off and recognition. In the 1-2 years leading up to when I left, the company was in a constant state of cost-cutting which meant a lack of people for the work to be done. This of course led to constant stress and long hours in an endless cycle of tape-outs, sampling dates, and process changes. In more than a few former colleagues, all this stress directly impacted health. For most roles, the overall company culture values quantity of work and expertise in a narrow set of skills vs. a diversity of experience and employee development, which makes it extremely difficult to move within the company. Applied to dozens of internal opportunities during my last 6 months when I wanted to try something new, but got only one interview. I consequently started to doubt my own abilities as an engineer until I was hired by an arguably more-prestigious employer, which made me realize maybe it was the Qualcomm (especially QCT/QTI) culture and not me.

Working in one of the team with very bad work culture.Work pressure all the year round with 12 hours per day.Have been in Qualcomm for more then 4 years and 6 years of experience in total. Struggling for promotion and they give a reason as tight budget cut.Work atmosphere is sullen.No recognition or awards for work . Insurance policy has gone worse.
