Pros
  • For as large as a company QC has become, they do a great job of treating their employees quite fairly.
  • The tickets on consignment are awesome.
  • The ESPP is wonderful.
  • Stock options are very nice.
  • Mediaflo would have tailgate parties every month.
  • The on-campus gym is very nice.
Cons

More so the downsides of working for a massive company.

Not all buildings have a nice cafe, especially the smaller AA-AF buildings.

Drawbacks of not working for their bread-and-butter QCT department.

Parking, since San Diego is a car city.

Advice to Management

Do a better job of putting employees that work together in closer proximity. With all senior engineers and above having an office, it becomes a nightmare to ensure everyone is sitting close to one another.
