Pros

Tries to minimize layoffs. After shutting down FloTV, most of the employees found positions elsewhere within Qualcomm.

Individual offices.

Lots of very interesting seminars on technology, management, and leadership.

Cons

Most of the money is still being made by CDMA technologies. Diversification strategies are suspect, e.g., FloTV, Mirasol.

Advice to Management

Need to keep better tabs on new initiatives. It is unclear how those projects are being evaluated (e.g., Mirasol).
