The rule to work in QPOET team
In a toxic environment, poison is gold.
Look out for yourself first
The reality is Qualcomm doesn’t treat employees like people. If you get laid off, you’ll be off their radar immediately. If you stick around, you’ll just be expected to work longer, follow every rule, and stay quiet no matter what. Your well-being... — read more
