Pros

Great benefits. Every building has a gym and most managers are nice

Cons

Too large a company, I used to feel like a small cog in a big machine Qualcomm lacks structure. If you have worked at a process driven company it takes time to understand how things function. Qualcomm is also an old boys club. If you know someone higher up or have been there for years and are well connected you will not have a problem, otherwise you are going to remain where you are. if you stay at QCOM for several years then eventually some of the stock options will be worth money.

Pros

nice company with great benefits. lots of opportunity to move to different areas and I have seen people grow by having jobs created for them. great activities for employees (such as picnics, evenings out, summer employee music/outdoor events) and a lot of learning resources available to take advantage of. We get free medical and dental benefits which is a definite plus and something I have not seen at other companies.

Cons

There are a few draw backs to working at QCT: QCT has a totally different culture than the rest of Qualcomm QCT employees work an excessive amount of time, often with little recognition Within QCT there is a lot of critical speak that goes on, have thick skin if you join The QCT culture is one of putting out fires -- don't expect a lot of planning to happen to prevent these fires If you are on the business side you need to realize that there is not a lot of recognition outside of engineers
