What are the good and bad things about both options?

JONT APSS HEAD is leaving qualcomm why?

I have heard one of the Principals in WT is leaving QCOM...

Look at all the bitch and moaners lurking here still working at the Q......

and a general lack of serious SW and HW architecture?

NA, JT, RT, AD, BF, TS Some very high profile and top performing people. Some moving to other jobs many retiring. There will be more top performers announcing soon.

How is that even possible?? Steve, what is going on?? http://www2.forbes.com/business/americas-best-employers-2015/?utm_campaign=Americas-Best-Employers&utm_source=yahoo-gemini&utm_medium=referral

Republican proposal to get rid of estate tax on estates over $10.6 million does nothing for me. They only support the rich.

This has been confirmed. Sell your RSUs today. I'm just looking out for my fellow Qualcomm employees

. . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . Congratulations. You just wasted 2 minutes of your precious time hating H1-B's instead of bettering your skills so you are more employable

The good ones that is. All you technically incompetent can kiss my ass. You still won't get hired. By anyone.

oh well.

to the rich... will all the disillusioned Trump supporters suddenly have a meltdown and their heads explode? Will it be like all those people counting on Obama for "hope and change" only to be royally disappointed and screwed?

Thank you Qualcomm for allowing me to immigrate here in the U.S. Now, I will return the favor and ensure more people like me can continue to build technology in the U.S. by encouraging more people with skills from overseas to come here too, since the... — read more

Happy New Year!

I looking forward for HR to dig in and find out you have not contribuited for 20+ years and on top of that you have no idea of any of the work you people does....people like this destroy companies.

Because I'm thankful I still have a job at Qualcomm even though I have an H1-B.

Skip to 6:02 mark. Looks like low gas prices (and associated MSM narrative extolling its virtues) couldn't save QC chipset demand. And that was before #JANA began their controlled demolition of the company... — read more 

http://blogs.reuters.com/breakingviews/2015/12/23/global-smartphone-brands-face-mass-extinction/ Unfortunately, Qualcomm's #1 customer is these small cellphone makers. Coincidence? I think not.

treated fairly, our products are very competitive, our technology especially CPU is more advanced than anyone else's, San Diego abounds with tech opportunities, my job is secure, I am happy.

Is it possible to switch teams within Qualcomm right now? What would be the best way to go about doing it? Is there some kind of a hiring freeze in place right now? Can you be PIPed out as retaliation by your current team?

this sucks -- no more packages for volunteering to be laid off. tried it and HR refused it. oh well. two days i am gone on my own.

Posts earlier in the month mentioned 60-day notices in mid-Jan.

Working at a fast food joint would be a promotion if you egos would allow you.

Will lay you off. Any suggestions on how to go about if I think I deserve promo

If so, I hope you are doing OK and neither you, your car, or your house were swept up by a tornado. I thought CA earthquakes were bad..Peace.

You are gonna looooove HillaryCare once she wins, thanks to Trump, that will alienate half of the GOP base that is a moderate non-white and/or female that either won't vote or throw away their vote on an independent. I might end up voting for an... — read more 

I am core/corebsp and unfortunate enough to have to work for this dog! Trying to transfer out to do more meaningful work. After layoffs this group seems to have hit rock bottom. Good people were let go and loud mouthed idiots and their side kicks... — read more 

The day before Xmas, --three days after QCOM requires that you actually choose a provider, we received the news that "effective January 1, 2016, Qualcomm will replace its current health plan with a qualified deductible health plan." A qualified... — read more
