Pros

Qualcomm is one of the best employers to work for in San Diego. The compensation and benefits are great. Since mobile is a hot area right now, it's an interesting company to work.

Cons

Since it is a large company, one's experience may vary across divisions. I'm working in a division that creates software to support chipset sales. Overall I feel that upper management doesn't invest as many resources as it should to produce world class software. And since there is a low turnover rate, it feels like some people are too comfortable with their jobs, so the passion may not be there.

Pros

Great design team. Learn a lot in the project. Great resources for self motivated technical improvement.

Cons

Big wave of talented engineers leaving in some critical departments. CEO lacks responsibility on the company development. CEO and CFO have been selling their stocks a lot every year.
