Pros

- Some great minds still work there - Reasonably good benefits (used to be much better, however) - Used to be an absolutely awesome company. Is it possible for that to happen again?

Cons

- A top-heavy company, resulting in a horribly political environment with much backstabbing as all levels of management try to "make their mark" without regard for the inefficiencies resulting from most of their initiatives. - A tough company for females! - A Culture of Fear: an environment where high level executives decide it is OK to yell at everyone in every single meeting instead of leading by example and identifying the real problems that are occurring within Qualcomm. Note to Bosses: If you are yelling at everyone, feeling that your whole team is lacking, maybe you are the problem, not your team. Turn inward, work with your team in a positive manner, and fix the issues!

Pros

Pay and benefits are good. Culture used to be awesome.

Cons

So why did I quit? Highly political work environment, no more raises, lack of job stability (management said no layoffs in our small team but one week later, one of our teammates is gone), work/life balance is pretty bad for hardworking, competent workers but great for career inhouse politicians who like to "work from home."
