Relax at Qualcomm

I have been with Qualcomm for the past 15 years. My current role typically takes only about 2–3 hours a day, and honestly, it’s something a new graduate could handle. Yet I continue in the same position and earn a Principal Engineer salary, which I’m very grateful for. Since I have extra time, I also pursue some real estate activities on the side., vesting and resting. There are hundreds of people like me in the company , milking the company as much possible.


Blocked from applying to lateral ORCM internal posting

Why do we still publish internal job postings if managers can still easily block someone and prevent them from being considered for the role?

And more often than not, the roles are prefilled with an internal candidate but posted anyway.

There’s organization including ICs are aware to this, to the point that when considering whether to apply, the first question to the hiring manager is “is this an actual position, or is it already backfilled?”


Existing site based non-wage positions are also affected.

From another thread:

900 Calgary campus employees gone. The remaining folks will be shipped to the manufacturing sites primarily Strathcona (Edmonton).

Some site folks (non wage) are to be replaced by higher performing folks from the Calgary move. Redundant positions especially in the mid to higher CLs at the sites to be replaced with Calgary folks that have been working global roles.


Top earners & folks getting close to their 20-year pension

They say they’re eliminating positions, but over the past 16 months, it’s become clear that long-tenured employees—especially those close to 20 years of service and eligible for pensions—are being systematically let go. Higher-paid leaders have also been removed. There seems to be a clear trend of replacing experienced, older employees with younger, less experienced hires who cost less. The current leadership has created a toxic environment, and the company appears to be in decline.


TIREMAN GONE, HONEYMAN GONE, TIME TO SEARCH OUTSIDE OF 3M AGAIN

With Honeyman gone, some 3Mer's might be interested in the honeyman position. 3M leadership will go outside of 3M because 3Mers are viewed as incompetent, good worker bees but not leadership material. The longer you are at 3M, the less likely you will be promotable. A longtime 3Mer is a future job elimination. 3M wants non-3M experienced leaders. The non-3M experienced leaders have been so impressive. Let the search begin.


Negotiating Salary/Benefits Package as Internal Candidate

I work at U.S. Bank right now and got offered a new internal position. questions are:

  • How successful have fellow internal folks been at negotiating salary? Any tips on how to maximize salary without going overboard?
  • Has anyone been able to negotiate their vacation package (e.g., 2 weeks to 3 weeks) or any other benefits?
  • any other areas that other internal folks have been successful at negotiating?

For context, I was offered around $65K which I feel is low and $80-85K is more in line with industry and based on my skills. Thanks for any advice you might all have.
