Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

bottom barrel

Staff Eng/left this passed summer/5yrs.

Guys, short story, Q maybe used to be awesome, gotta tell you, they are bottom tier employer now.

I left and now make 10% more. BUT BUT here is the killer. Now I have my evenings and weekends back to enjoy. ALSO have a REAL health plan. ALSO have a fun working environment where colleagues are at work by 8:30 and work hard then finish and leave 5:30-6. No meeting BS/no endless 'sync ups'/no agonizing 'scrums'/no 9pm calls with India/no IMs at all hours.

First and last post here to try to encourage those good honest people at Q to wake up and improve your lot. So long.

Can we have a meeting to plan a meeting to discuss your slides? Let’s constantly edit the slides and im at all hours of the night.

We need to make sure the fonts and bullets are aligned properly.

No notion of boundaries at Q.

Glad I got out of that sweatshop,

BDC calls were the worst.
