Too many politics. Great company? Not really
Basically just a mirage of a big company; years of experience you can put on your resume.
Too much politics, bad leadership. How well you will be treated depends on where you are. If unfortunately you work in Devil's Island, no matter how hard you work, you would be buried in the office politics.
I knew some guys tried to sue the company due to unfair treatment. Of course, Qualcomm's lawyers came to settle with them. Others just didn't want to handle the political drama; they quit.
Generally, Qualcomm is aged. For 4G, Qualcomm does not have a dominant patent like CDMA.
Get rid of politics in the middle-layer management, which is hurting the company. I knew a lot of talented guys quit due to politics.
