      Pros

      Great Pay, Good benefits, and nice people.

      Cons

      All projects have very aggressive schedules with no breathing room between projects. No work/life balance. It's very common to work weekends, holidays, and very very long hours in general. If you have a family, this is not the right workplace for you.

      Pros

      Great benefits, the pay is like okay. Some cool reimbursement programs and health centers on campus

      Cons

      Career progression and culture varies extremely depending on department. Some parts almost set you up for failure and it's difficult to gain new skills. Lots of qualcomm teams are too scared to explore new technologies and migrate to state of the art services and are comfortable in sticking with old technology for familiarity. Also, HR does nothing if a coworker makes you uncomfortable.
