Once upon a time, a good company lost its edge in current competition
Some of the very finest engineers to work with in the Wireless industry.
A very open and collaborative environment where you can learn and grow in your career.
Good health-care coverage, even though a high deductible has recently been added (very much comparable with Apple, Google, FB).
Negative atmosphere due to multiple lawsuits made this company go from "best company to work for" to "not so good company to work for" (Basically, from year 2015 to 2018 and counting are the worst of worst years in Qualcomm history).
No matter how good the current CEO is trying, his luck is not favoring. The CEO is kind of caught up in fights from multiple ends, so the company is losing focus and valuable/experienced talent.
Salary is below than competitor companies. The pay scale is as per 2014 in 2018.
The CEO needs to do something before it's too late, or the CEO needs to step down. There's no fault of the CEO, but luck is not on his side.
