A Dedicated Work Force
In 2005, Qualcomm conducted a company-wide climate survey to measure employee perceptions related to their employment at Qualcomm. On all 14 survey dimensions, Qualcomm employee responses were more favorable than all external comparisons.
Qualcomm has earned a distinguished reputation that goes beyond CDMA. Qualcomm is among the members of the S&P 500 Index, FORTUNE 500,® and a winner of the U.S. Department of Labor’s “Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity Award” for establishing and instituting comprehensive strategies to ensure equal employment in Qualcomm’ workforce.
