Excellent for learning, horrible for fairness
Qualcomm develops unique technology that nobody else has equal expertise with. As an engineer, there were amazing opportunities to learn wireless communication protocols that were designed in-house.
Performance reviews are completely unfair unless your manager is technically sound and smart enough to recognize the level of your work. Most middle managers are status collectors who were promoted through friendships and alliances that form because of incompetence. Many VPs have no reports, but then you see they've filed 3,000 patents. Qualcomm's business model is licensing and IP and the litigation lawsuits that follow.
