Pros

Engineering talent is awesome. The projects are interesting. I have worked here for a while and have never found a reason to go to a different company.

Cons

It is a big company and some bureacracy/waste goes with being a big company.

Pros

Private offices are available for staff and higher positions, sometimes even with a window and a view. Excellent health benefits including an on-site clinic for San Diego employees. They certainly try to give you private offices based on your title. Unfortunately, it encourages people to rise to the occasion and still distract their neighbors. They give you free sodas. Their IT department is a strong asset and their top place to work ranking is largely well deserved.

Cons

CCA's aren't their strong point. Its critical to my job and to our customers. I have been a one-man show before using Allegro. But, now I have to sit next to someone who can draw cartoons on silkscreen but can't be left alone to move copper without me. I don't have time to do it myself (fight the Mentor DALMS and Boardstation software) and have my Labview code working before the assembled board comes back. I have spent decades in cubicle farms. Got along pretty well with my neighbors. Still, I was looking forward to having an office with a door on it. Stupid me. Big fat waste O money on Qualcomm's part. Prepare to work odd hours so you can avoid having your spirit crushed by H1Bs sharing their voicemail and number dialing activity with everyone inside a 20 ft radius. No department is immune from this practice, apparently.
