San Diego, CA

Former Employee – worked at Qualcomm as an intern for less than a year

ProsQualcomm is an extremely successful company that truly cares about it's employees and interns. The internship program is so strong that I immediately felt apart of the team and involved in each step of the way through the various projects I assisted them with. The people are friendly, smart, driven and fun.

ConsThe only reason I would not recommend Qualcomm to somebody is if they were not passionate about wireless technology and the big advances occurring in the industry, or if they weren't keen on the big corporate feel.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

San Diego, CA

Current Employee – been working at Qualcomm as an intern for less than a year

Pros1. Great Intern treatment.
2. Responsibility to do something the team depends on and not just some random testing stuff.
3. San Diego..!! :p

Cons1. The pay during the internship was adequate but the full time offer was below par.

Advice to Senior ManagementYou guys are doing great with the entire experience. The only thing lacking is the compensation (which could be improved to par on other similar companies like nVidia)

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Current Employee – been working at Qualcomm as an intern for less than a year

Proscompetitive salary, lodging reimbursement, relocation reimbursement, paid timeoff.

Advice to Senior Managementnew employee orientation should be more departmental-/team-specific other than general introductions to the whole company.
