At least that’s my opinion, based on what I see at my office. People seem to be relieved, in a better mood, far less depression. Didn’t know that people were worried by the dispute that much. Has anybody noticed the same thing at their location, or am I just looking at a small sample of people compared to the company-wide mood?

Beatings will continue until the morale improves
Short term morale boost. The underlying problem of growth in both business and personal development still present. Couple this with the cut in benefits and c-appy review cycles and you still have discontent. While the stock is up, people will realize only the 10th floor benefitted.
Qualcomm, it's a job that pays well, that's all at best. It's a bad work environment, lots of unhappy employees, a CEO who drags the company down and should be long gone. The buck stops at the top, until we have a new CEO morale will stay bad.
I noticed the opposite, people whom I work with are behaving crazy, irritable & continue to spread bad morale...
May be they sold stock at $50-55??
All those people who are struck at principals/ directors for >5yrs need to go away...
Stock price does nothing for being overworked of course. Work life balance is critical to morale as money. People need to go home on time to be happy.
imjf is right about stock price. QCOM is still lagging behind AVGO but by more than $20 a share. Just graph both QCOM and AVGO, we s---.
In my San Diego office it's better only because the stock price. Work is still not s positive. Many directors and sr directors in my department and with those I work are still overall not liked by many, inner vs outer circle. Management favoritism is not going well for many, if it were me who's on the out I'd just find another job. Honestly am glad they don't leave, better for me at review time being in the inner circle with management.
People feel better now the stock price is up. However some note we'd be further ahead if bought by Broadcom in 2017. I think qcom is down at least $20 a share from where we'd be if broadcom Bought us. That's not whining or being a snowflake, it's real money.
Don't worry, there will always be a bunch of losers, crybabies, whiners, ankle-biters, and hangers-on to snowflake about every good thing happening around them.
OP language has a whiff of mgmt scent, which is fine I suppose.
This was a multi-year ordeal. Will take time to recover. It's not like the culture was all that great to begin with though.
They think it’s over. Not quite yet...
