Qualcomm reviews

When I started at Qualcomm, they were on the Forbes Top 100 Companies to work for list. They haven't been back since, and it's clear why: they stopped treating their employees as a valuable asset, and instead seem to be treating them as expendable assets. I've watched almost half my team go to other companies, but no one in management seems to be panicking like they should be. Qualcomm seems to have no common processes, nor the flexibility to let small groups decide their own processes. "Agile" and "Scrum" are words that are used without any of the actual benefits of those processes. The inefficiency in my group alone is staggering, and proposing improvements gets opposition from the 10+ year veterans who think they're still working at a scrappy startup company. Which leads to the other thing: Qualcomm is an enormous company with tons of revenue, but there are still, for some reason, pockets of the company (or maybe it's universal, for all I know) that act like it's a startup where everyone needs to put in ridiculous hours all the time. If Qualcomm can't meet their deadlines with people working normal hours, then that's a management issue, not employees not working hard enough. There are times when long hours over a short, pre-determined period can result in huge efficiency gains, and that can be worth it. But when it's considered a negative on your performance review that you're unavailable on weekends, while the rest of your work is stellar... well, it makes sense that people (those who could) would try to find a more sane work environment.

1. Bureaucracy and politics 2. Management is so crude and no matter how talented you are and how much you work. They will promote you only after completing 3 years and more. 3. Yearly review cycle and that's also not sure how much hike you will get as it depends on overall earnings which are shrinking year by year in competitive mobile chipset market. 4. Huge work load. you take one week leave and management thinks you were not working from last 6 months. 5. Learning areas are very shrink and regular work load is more. which will make you tire and unfit to outside world job market. 6. Most of the teams has no coding work, So you will forget all the programming knowledge and while looking for new job, you will have to study all your programming basics again. 7.
