Senior GPU Verification Engineer
Senior GPU Verification Engineer
Location: San Diego is one of the best locations you can work in the US.
The GPU department is probably the worst at Qualcomm, headed by a bunch of clowns.
Promotion is only given to sycophants. Unless you are close to the small circle which controls the department, you stand no chance. The people in this circle are some of the dumbest in the industry, and they will eventually blame their failures (almost every project is a certain failure) on employees. Annoyingly, you will always be compared against these people by your manager.
Managers are the worst, at times abusive and outright liars.
If you are on immigration, STAY AWAY. Every single day, your manager will remind you of the HUGE favor done to you by filing your immigration.
After all the mental torture you get every week, your pay is one of the lowest in the semiconductor industry.
Half the GPU management is drunk on a typical Friday morning. Keep doing what you do until you drown the department. These people are not even fit to get into another company.
