Pros

Situated in the beautiful city of San Diego Reasonable pay, though not the best.

Cons

Everyone is always busy so its difficult to get help when you need it. Very difficult for someone new to get to speed as there is no formal training, knowledge sharing. Not a good place to learn if you are early in your career. There are company wide trainings for certain things - but it is very difficult to find time to attend those. Very aggressive, requiring long hours.

Pros

Great benefits, the pay is like okay. Some cool reimbursement programs and health centers on campus

Cons

Career progression and culture varies extremely depending on department. Some parts almost set you up for failure and it's difficult to gain new skills. Lots of qualcomm teams are too scared to explore new technologies and migrate to state of the art services and are comfortable in sticking with old technology for familiarity. Also, HR does nothing if a coworker makes you uncomfortable.
