      Pros

      -Less stressful than other tech companies to work at -People are usually pretty nice and have been with the company for a long time -Pay is competitive if you negotiate during hiring

      Cons

      Working at Qualcomm is like working for a dinosaur. It’s an older tech company, with the talent to match. It’s very different from any other tech company in that it moves like a dinosaur. Unqualified and ineffective leadership cling to their roles and enforce unnecessary approval hierarchies because it’s clear they wouldn’t be able to get a job anywhere else at this point in their careers. Think boomers who can’t rotate a PDF, yet keep 10 people in a meeting so someone can demonstrate for them how to do it. Managers aren’t given any training, and employees are told career development is their responsibility. If you just want a job you don’t need to care about, this is probably fine for you. But Qualcomm is where people’s dreams of career advancement and development go to die.
