Qualcomm

Lots of smart people and interesting work happening in NJ.

Good opportunity if you can align yourself with the right people and projects.

Hard work is usually rewarded.

There is a lot of change happening to Qualcomm right now, and it feels that remote sites (not in CA) are disadvantaged when it comes to C-level backing on projects.

A shake-up at a large corporation is usually a good chance to rise above the rest if you can prove yourself. However, it seems like the only opportunities available are missing the pieces to be successful.

Whether this is true or not, I feel more regular communication with upper management and senior/staff engineers would foster a better chance of getting these concerns aired and addressed so that the right leadership is established.

I think, in the near future, this will prove to be critical to keep key personnel and lower-level staff from moving on to other opportunities. The incentives for lower-level staff are not what they used to be.
