Pros

Cutting-edge technology development.

Many generations ahead.

Very many benefits compared to other companies.

Good bi-year bonuses.

Cons

QCT is a workaholic place, and putting in long hours is the norm rather than an exception.

Top-heavy.

Hiring is shifting towards India.

Advice to Management

Qualcomm seems to have a passion for bringing in external hires at high executive positions instead of looking to promote in-house talent.

It is top-heavy and heading in that direction.
