Pros

Benefits and professional learning opportunities are above par, and unmatched within the San Diego area. Great health benefits, world class speakers are brought in for employees to hear.

Cons

Middle management and senior management are not always aligned. Promotions are not fair, even if you execute successfully on projects you may not get recognized, if your supervisor does not like you.

Pros

Great benefits, the pay is like okay. Some cool reimbursement programs and health centers on campus

Cons

Career progression and culture varies extremely depending on department. Some parts almost set you up for failure and it's difficult to gain new skills. Lots of qualcomm teams are too scared to explore new technologies and migrate to state of the art services and are comfortable in sticking with old technology for familiarity. Also, HR does nothing if a coworker makes you uncomfortable.
