Vantaggi

Pretty good company if you want to work at a Fortune 100 company. They love to tout that as a reason to sign on with them. The benefits package is very good as far as healthcare goes. But the stock options are also usually given to new employees. Check the market to see what those are worth.

Svantaggi

Salaries are lower than the rest of the industry. The "you should be glad you work here we're a Fortune 100 company" predominates. Management is completely clueless. They build products and have no idea how to bill for them or if there is even a market for them. Lot's of poor planning resulting in ill defined last minute projects. Your expected to work at least 60 hours a week for weeks on end. As an exempt employee you end up working for near half salary. Look elsewhere unless you like 60+ hour weeks and not seeing your family. The stock options are worthless and the stock hasn't risen in years. Stay out of QUALCOMM Enterprise Services, that business unit is dying on the vine it is just a shrt matter of time before they cut that unit loose to flounder on it's own.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.
