Pros

Qualcomm is a great place to work.

Great culture if you are lucky to be in the right department. Salary is OK. For the start, it needs to be small. The company pays in Silicon Valley. You must live in beautiful San Diego. There are bonuses.

Cons

There are scores of long-term directions and VPs who survived the layoffs and still cling to old-school, positive thinking. They lack imagination and are thinking about surviving instead of being brave.

Advice to Management

It takes time to be successful. CEOs and other C-level executives need some backbone to question their subordinates versus taking things at face value.
