Qualcomm Incorporated

"As with all large companies, the work environment is largely dependent on your manager/leader. My managers have done a good job of building an inclusive environment, however, I have seen other teams that I would never work for based on their leadership. I'd recommend thoroughly vetting hiring managers, as well as gathering as much insight as possible from interviewers, when going through the interview process to better understand that specific team's culture/norms before accepting a job. "

"No one has this all figured out yet but Qualcomm is investing effort in all the right places towards a more fair workplace that is equally welcoming to all and helps everyone thrive. "

"This is a great place to start your career , as you move up the ranks, you may want to negotiate for better pay and benefits."

"If you are a solo worker, this is your place. Otherwise, I would say you may feel lonely at times because -depending on the team- you might be the only woman (and even more of an outcast if you're also the only person who doesn't speak the language -not English- that's popular among your peers). Following this same line, most team bonding activities will be sporty and competitive. Unfortunately, there is still a finger-pointing culture instead of a collaborative one. I would like to see efforts from HR or managers to bring teams together, remind them we are all working for the same goal."

"Be willing to work very hard, expect some long hours, and be ready to advocate for yourself."
