QUALCOMM Flarion Technologies Reviews

Former Employee – worked at QUALCOMM Flarion Technologies full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – Great benefits, flexible work environment. Immediate supervisor was terrific.

Cons – Middle management incompetent and flat out has no business being managers. One nearly caused me to burn out from overworking the team (EVERYTHING was an emergency because he wanted it done fast so he could look good).

Work consisted mostly of recycling code from other groups within Qualcomm - mostly in San Diego. No way to innovate! San Diego acts like their excrement smells sweeter than everybody else's and does not provide support or adequate documentation for their stuff.

No appreciation for past work by some senior engineering staff (not even a "thank you" when I left). I was never thanked by one manager even though he got a promotion thanks to my efforts and those of my colleagues.

Advice to Senior Management – Fire two mid-level hardware engineering managers who happen to have the same first name. None of the engineering staff likes them - only upper managers. You know who I mean.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Current Employee – been working at QUALCOMM Flarion Technologies

Pros – Technology you get to work with.

Cons – Closed culture, top down management style is stifling

Advice to Senior Management – Have an open culture and must hire more junior engineers to have better hierarchy

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
