...and QC doesn't easily let go of any employee. So, some people are enjoying Govt. job like job satisfaction with much better pay. HR needs to do a much better job in bringing the right talent to the hiring managers and also, in organising employee engagement activities.

Good pay. Work gives satisfaction but at the same time it gets too hectic( believe me engineers have to stay in office till midnight also if the work is not complete)

Salary - Good

Dislikes

Managers micro manage team members and there is a lot of politics involved in work assignment and appraisals. The complaints don't get heard even at higher levels due to politics(since managers and above have been there for around 15 years together so basically you cannot complain about any issue as higher management people have worked together for a long time). Not so open work culture overall.

Job security - Poor

Culture at Qualcomm is worst. Managers are like robots, no human thing at all. Staff Engineers thinks they know all, they are RIGHT. Close minded people works at Qualcomm. No team bonding. You can't grow here technically.

New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!
