Pros

The organization continues to embrace a culture of continuous learning. The skills possessed by the multitude of globally distributed disciplines are world-class.

Cons

The Executive Leadership did not take the time to educate the mass number of new hires over the past 15 years on the principles of "The Qualcomm Way."

Everyone is empowered to say no.

This significantly impacts execution efficiency and it erodes the drive of those committed to excellence.

Advice to Management

Take the time to look inside your organization to understand why your costs are mounting project after project. The impact of compromised attitudes significantly overshadows technical prowess.
