Pros

Cutting-edge technology.

Very good benefits, although salaries are low.

Depending on the project you are working on, your job is probably secure.

Cons

Stagnant organization. No opportunities for promotion.

Forget about having a life while you work at Qualcomm CDMA. You are expected to work very late every day and on weekends too.

Terrible communication from the leadership team.

Terrible quality (both personal and technical) people in important positions.

Salaries are below average.

Advice to Management

Some respect, PLEASE. Consider thanking people for their hard work, instead of continuous whining about crap.

Treat people like they are humans with families.

Salaries and bonuses are very low compared to the workload.
