Pros

Working as a contract employee, I don't find any pros.

Cons
  1. I was working in Qualcomm, Chennai, through a third party on a contract basis as a fresher.
  2. I don't know about other offices, but the Qualcomm Chennai office is full of regional politics.
  3. Even if you are a good performer, they will not assign you quality work. They will assign quality work to local people, even if they don't have the ability.
  4. They will treat you like a slave. They will not give you credit for your work.
  5. There is no scope for learning. They assign work like counting the number of working laptops in a lab, etc.
  6. My suggestion to freshers who passed out from top institutes (IIT, NIT) is: don't join Qualcomm through a third party.
Advice to Management

My suggestion to Chennai office management:

Don't take advantage of freshers' helplessness. Stop playing regional politics.
