TL;DR: Google is extremely hard to get into (Only 5000 out of 3 million make it), but well worth it. Although only 1% of Qualcomm employees are Google material, I'd highly recommend coming here if you can crack the interview. I left Qualcomm a few... — read more

Offices to get hit the hardest: San Diego (~1.4k let go, another 1.5k to be axed) Boulder (~160 let go, another 80ish to go), one building is also being sold.

Didn't say how many but just look for it.
