PROJECT SUMMARY, SCOPE AND VISION

The Pacific Center site will be state-of-the-art. It will be beautiful, deeply sustainable and will serve as a compelling amenity and powerful tool to increase productivity, be supportive to recruiting and retaining the very best and brightest, and be a showcase to technology, all of which advocates Qualcomm’s core values:

INNOVATION | EXECUTION | PARTNERSHIPS

The master plan concept has been focused on transforming the existing site from a vehicular oriented development to a pedestrian oriented campus environment in order to support Qualcomm’s biggest asset--its people. The master plan design develops opportunities with the other adjacent Qualcomm properties to expand the vision, and in the future will link all of Qualcomm’s facilities into a master corporate campus. One of the initial opportunities developed is a new native trail through the Pacific Center campus which will connect to the Lopez Canyon trail on the north side of the site. This actively used natural amenity will provide a new opportunity for the employees of Qualcomm to interact with the natural environment throughout the campus. The campus design also creates a strong connection to the WT campus to the west. This unique location is where Qualcomm owns all four buildings at one intersection--‘Qualcomm 4 Corners.’ At this intersection there is an opportunity to connect multiple developments. As a common theme, the overall campus design weaves together natural free flowing spaces with refined public spirited environments, defining the new campus vision and embracing strong sustainable site strategies for water systems and native ecosystems.

Program Summary

The master plan includes a hierarchy of spaces, pedestrian connections and site amenities to knit all of the existing buildings with the new development, creating a cohesive holistic campus environment. The AY and AZ buildings have been developed to optimize passive design strategies to achieve high performance results, provide a higher quality of space for the interior workplace environments and increase employee productivity. The buildings optimize an east / west solar orientation and have a narrow floor plate to promote natural ventilation, enhanced daylighting and control heat gain and glare through a high performance façade design. The height of the new buildings has been developed to layer up with existing building heights creating a stepping in hierarchy to the campus that accentuates the priority of the pedestrian oriented spaces between buildings. The AY building program will incorporate all of the new office and lab program spaces into a single structure. The interior environment is centered around the individual user’s day, enhancing their surroundings to be more productive. The lab space is located within the adjacent workplace so teams can interact seamlessly in a research environment. Conference spaces are located at the building hub which serves as a central gathering point to foster interaction, collaboration and innovation. The design approach organizes each of these program components as distinct ‘species’ which are optimized for each specific use to increase their individual performance, fully serving their user’s needs and the entire development. The AZ building will include the Pacific Center Campus conference center, dining facility, fitness center and health center. The conference facility will provide meeting and learning spaces for varying group sizes while offering new models for collaborative gathering and learning. The dining center will offer a dynamic dining experience by providing the ‘flavors of the world’ within the open concept kitchen with a wide variety of menu options. The great hall within the dining space will be a transparent pavilion with direct connections to outdoor dining terraces overlooking both the soccer field and the entry courtyard. The fitness facility will be located on the second floor with adjacent roof terraces to host outdoor fitness classes and serve as the hub and the athletic zone within the Pacific Center Campus. The Center for the Future of Health will be imagining and defining the next generation of health centers which will embody the true spirit of innovation while fully integrating technology into the user experience. The new buildings have been integrated into an overall campus environment which was organized around properly scaled public spaces, public amenities, and clear circulation systems. The campus experience will provide a dynamic social environment fostering a spirit of community on the new Pacific Center Campus. It will change the way people live, work and play.

PROJECT GOALS

QUALCOMM’S FLAGSHIP SITE WILL SHOWCASE THEIR CORE VALUES BY ACCOMPLISHING FOUR PROJECT GOALS. THROUGH HUMAN CENTERED DESIGN, THE NEW ADDITIONS WILL CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH ENGINEERS CAN EXCEL IN MAKING PRODUCTS THAT CHANGE THE WORLD. IT WILL BE A GREAT PLACE TO WORK, BOTH ATTRACTING THE TOP 2% OF GRADUATES, AND RETAINING THEM FOR YEARS TO COME. IT WILL ALSO SHOWCASE THE TECHNOLOGY OF THIS AMAZING CAMPUS.

Program Summary

1.2 VISION Workshop Summary – What is the Next Big Idea? In early September a half day Visioning Session was hosted by BNIM with attendees from Qualcomm QREF, end user representatives, departmental leaders, and LandLAB. The purpose of the Visioning Session was for the design team to discover Qualcomm’s values and to establish Guiding Principles for the project.

BELIEFS

BNIM introduced the project as a design for all senses--performance, aesthetic and experience. The new Pacific Center should be an exemplary place which enhances the human condition. It should contribute positively to the present and to the future incorporating nature and generous pragmatism. Attendees broke into groups to participate in a breakout activity where they were given several dozen images and were asked to select those images which they felt were a metaphor to Qualcomm’s current and future culture. All three groups described Qualcomm’s current culture as fast moving, ever changing and always climbing. They described their future culture as innovative, energetic and embracing a life/work balance. The design team also discussed the Site, suggesting it should engage nature and wellness. Regarding the workplace, design strategies for offices should incorporate biomimicry and embrace the multiple generations in today’s workplace. The labs, which are constantly changing, should accommodate state-of-the-art equipment and HVAC.

Program Summary

Then attendees broke into groups again to describe their “loves”, “hates” and what could be “improved”. They described views, access to natural light, natural ventilation, openness across the floors and the Tech Cave as things they “love”; things they “hate” included confined spaces, long hallways, lack of private rooms and slow elevators. Things they wish could be “improved” include access to views and light, well designed conference rooms and the wish to have an open connecting stair and/or open stairs.

Love: Tech Cave

Hate: Hallways

Could be changed/improved: Open stairs with natural light (as seen in this image)

Program Summary

Visioning Outcomes Attendees broke into groups one final time to identify things which they felt should be incorporated into the design team’s guiding principles. Repeated comments included having an attractive place to work (interior and exterior) which is simple, open and flexible. It should incorporate art, have access to nature and more natural light (even in hallways), enhance communication and collaboration, improve amenities and food offerings and be a place where you will find happy smiling engineers. Ultimately the result of the Visioning Session was the creation of the project’s comprehensive Guiding Principles.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES

• CREATE AN INSPIRING AND BEAUTIFUL CAMPUS • ENHANCE CONNECTION TO NATURE • CREATE SPATIAL PATTERNS THAT ARE ORGANIC AND INSPIRED BY NATURE • INCREASE QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF OPEN SPACES, INCLUDING INCREASED DAYLIGHT • IMPROVE CONNECTION TO SURROUNDING QUALCOMM BUILDINGS • ENHANCE DIRECT AND IN-DIRECT COMMUNICATION • PROVIDE EFFECTIVE COLLABORATION SPACES • PROVIDE AMENITIES TO SUPPORT A GOOD WORK/LIFE BALANCE • FOSTER A COMMUNITY THAT SUPPORTS A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE • DESIGN A CAMPUS THAT MAKES QUALCOMM EMPLOYEES HAPPY • CREATE A FLEXIBLE WORK ENVIRONMENT • BE EFFICIENT • BE ON TIME • BE ON BUDGET

SITE

Site Design Goals and Objectives The overall campus design has woven together natural free flowing spaces with refined public spirited environments as a common theme which defines the new campus vision and embraces strong sustainable site strategies for water systems and native ecosystems. Following are the four categories of site goals and objectives. 1. 2. 3. 4.

Workplace Environment Environmental Stewardship Community/Connectivity Built Environment

The AY courtyard will be an extension of the building lobby, providing a plaza environment for outdoor gatherings or short breaks. A central stormwater collection area connects the building roof and plaza drainage to a landscaped spine, bringing nature into the campus and integrating stormwater collection and filtration. The open air lobby will bring the outside in. Smaller outdoor plaza spaces will be incorporated into the east and south facades providing a variety of outdoor seating, meeting and dining options. As an extension of the dining facility, the AZ plaza will provide shaded outdoor seating areas with a water feature on a terrace both north and south of the serving area. Building AZ shall provide a direct and welcoming connection to the WT building. A green roof will be sloped to provide access to the second floor of the dining area and to the health and fitness center. The parking structure will have a green wall on the south façade providing visitors and employees with a welcoming nature experience as they walk to their offices.

WORKPLACE SUMMARY

Extensive workplace research began with the creation of two surveys. One survey was for employees and the other was for their departmental leaders. Departmental leaders were to answer their survey questions on behalf of their department, rather than themselves. Both surveys included many of the same questions. Additional questions in the Departmental Leader Surveys queried quantitative information and additional questions in the Employee Survey queried qualitative information. The surveys were made available to 500+/- employees and their department leaders in four departments. CoreBSP (324 employees) had a 38% response rate. Graphics (254 employees) had a 28% response rate. Sensors (16 employees) had a 69% response rate and Engineering Operations (32 employees) had a 6% response rate. The overall number of Department Leaders responding was relatively equal to the number of employees per department. And although no Employee Survey responses were received from Engineering Ops, the distribution of responses from the other three departments was very similar to the overall number of employees across those departments. 5% Eng Ops 13% Sensors

Department Leader Surveys were made available to the department leaders within these same four departments. Responses were received from leaders within all four departments, and the distribution of responses was similar to the overall distribution of employees across those departments, including Engineering Ops. 85% of the respondents were male; 15% were female. Half of the respondents were Generation X-ers (1960-1980), 42% were Millenials (1980-2000), while only 7% were Baby Boomers (born before 1960).

Program Summary

Department leaders reported that the majority of their employees’ time is spent in their workstations/offices with the remainder of their time split between the lab and conferencing. Department leaders and employees agreed that the majority of employees’ time is spent focusing on highly concentrative work. 85% of the respondents said that the best place for them to innovate is in a quiet and serene space. And yet 55% responded that the easiest place to be creative/innovative is in a collaborative environment. 73% said they came up with their best ideas when they were alone.

Workspace With almost two thirds of peoples’ time spent in their workspace, it’s important to understand why they are concerned about that environment. 95% or the respondents believe that the quality of their work environment is very important to their sense of job satisfaction, and 73% believe that the work environment has been a contributing factor to their decision to accept or reject a job offer.

95% Quality of environment important

73% Accept job offer based on environment

Employees are currently most satisfied with their thermal comfort and the lighting in their workspaces; employees are least satisfied with their current access to daylight and views. Department leaders are most satisfied with their current access to daylight/views and lighting in their workspaces. Reactions from employees and department leaders to current acoustics in their workspaces were neutral, not heavy in either satisfaction or dissatisfaction indicators.

79% said that if their work environment were improved, it would increase their productivity. Several people requested a more attractive space, one which incorporates art and stimulates one’s imagination. For example, based upon Qualcomm’s fiscal annual earnings for 2011, an increase in productivity of only 5% for the 1,540 AY employees = $54.33m in revenue annually.

79% Better environment would increase productivity

Program Summary

The majority of employees will be moving into workstations in their new environment. 78% of the returned surveys came from people who currently reside in private offices, half of which have glass sidelights or glass windows; the remainder are in fully enclosed offices with no views at all. 35% expressed the desire for access to daylight and views. The large majority of department leaders and employees indicated that they do their best work in their personal workspaces, and 73% believe they come up with their best ideas alone. 85% indicated the importance of places to “get away” or focus. 35% Expressed 35% the desire Expressed for theaccess desire to daylight and for access to views daylight and views

85% Indicated 85% Indicated the the importance of importance places places tooffocus to focus

When people were asked about their desires for the future office space, 18% of the respondents expressed concern about noise and the potential lack of privacy within an open office environment. People don’t want to hear conversations and distractions around their workstations, and they don’t want people around them to be listening to their personal phone calls. 50% indicated that there are not enough privacy rooms; it is unclear as to whether or not that comment was based on current needs or future needs, when more people will be in workstations.

18% Expressed concern about noise and lack of privacy

Program Summary

Conferencing Employees work in teams; teams are sized anywhere between 10 and 100. A third of the teams work independently of each other and get together on a regular basis to collaborate. Most of the remainder work either independently or in small teams and report back to team leaders. Conference rooms are where collaborative team meetings take place. 53% indicated that the best place for teams to innovate is a quiet and serene space. Information is reviewed collectively, brainstorming and team building take place, and presentations are made to team leaders.

There are currently not enough conference rooms, and the rooms that are available are not large enough for the sizes of groups that need to meet. Rooms are difficult to book because they are in such high demand relative to the rooms available. Many people indicated that they don’t even try to attend meetings because they know they will not fit in the room; they teleconference instead. A repeated comment was the need for many more conference rooms, and the need for additional flexible technology with ample audio capabilities including video conferencing and tele-presence rooms.

Program Summary

85% surveyed indicated the importance of effective conference space for formal meetings. 72% surveyed indicated the importance of state-of-the-art technology; that survey response may potentially be the result of conferencing technology needs but may also point to individual job function requirements. White boards were noted repeatedly as the most effective tool in collaboration spaces by far.

Amenities When asked about what new amenities might be added, a desire for improved food options was voiced, in particular 81% indicated the need for healthy food options, plus there were requests for subsidized or free food, and food options for extended hours. Access to outdoor space would be used for short breaks (82%), lunch breaks (76%), personal phone calls (62%), and informal meetings (45%) followed by many other suggestions as well. 66% responded that currently there is ot enough patio/deck/outdoor space.

82% for short breaks 76% for lunch breaks 62% for personal phone calls 45% informal meetings

An on-site fitness facility was requested by 1/3 of the respondents as well as break rooms, game rooms, and access to the outside (72%) to be able to take a quick break during long working hours. Bike storage was also requested.

Use of access to outdoor space

Departmental Adjacencies Two thirds of the departments surveyed are split between multiple facilities. According to Department Leader surveys, in San Diego only CoreBSP is split between AQ and AV; all other departments are primarily in AQ and congruent spaces. According to the Employee Surveys, there are also employees at AV, AZT and WT. Most department adjacencies requested were inter-departmental; only one department adjacency was requested and that was from a department leader from Sensors who requested they be near CoreBSP.

SPATIAL ORGANIZATION

The programming surveys and interviews revealed essentially three workstyles – Focus, Collaborate and Socialize. Engineers perform focused work in their workstations, in the labs and in the privacy rooms. Collaboration occurs in the informal collaboration spaces and in enclosed meeting rooms. And employees socialize and recharge in spaces like the dining room, outdoor areas or break rooms. Work Styles | Acoustical Separation

Program Summary

Spatial Relationships Spatial interior layouts will correspond with the building’s narrow floor plate which promotes natural ventilation, enhances daylighting and is sited to have optimal east/west orientation for daylight, heat gain and glare control. Studies were conducted to explore a variety of scenarios where the building was divided into zones segregating social, active and quiet areas.

The elevator lobbies, coffee bars, break areas and some conference rooms on each floor will be active hubs to encourage spontaneous social interaction and the exchange of ideas. Lab spaces will be centrally located with designated adjacent collaborative areas. The open office area will be the designated quiet zone to allow for concentrative and focused work.

COREBSP

CoreBSP designs the boards on which all chips are built and placed; this department consists of 324 (329 with ADT) people within 9 groups. There are Software Development teams and Testing teams. Teams are comprised of 30 to 50 people with 8-10 people per sub-team. Sub-teams work closely and prefer a ‘cul-de-sac’ environment. Time is evenly divided between their workstations (20-50% of their time) and the lab (30-50% of their time), with 20% of their time in meetings. The majority (50%) of their work is concentrative; 30% of their work is collaborative.

2.2

ENGINEERING OPS

Engineering Operations provides equipment and hardware support to all APSS engineers throughout the campus. The support is provided in person at a Walk-Up Center and via phone. The group needs to be located near a loading dock; equipment deliveries are received on flat bed dollies and stocked daily. Rolling equipment carts are used to move equipment inter-departmentally. The department includes a Walk-Up Center, which is manned by 1-2 people at a desk or counter with a check-in monitor, and workstations for Engineering Ops personnel nearby. Space is required in front of the Walk-Up Center desk for queuing plus seating for 2-3 people waiting. Space is required behind the Walk-Up Center desk for a rack of equipment. Adjoining space should house equipment and boxes, everything from headsets to 60” monitors as well as space to break down boxes. The Walk-Up Center should be bright and inviting, encouraging engineers to utilize this resource; it could have its own building entrance. Engineering Operations staff spend their time talking to people, providing hardware support, testing equipment, attending meetings and emailing. The staff need a way to secure equipment at their desks. The department workstation environment should be quiet. Engineering Operations is comprised of 25 people. People spend 55% of their time in their workstations and 20% of their time in meetings; no time is spent in lab space. Their work is evenly divided between concentrative and collaborative. Program Summary

2.3

GRAPHICS

Graphics Department designs graphic processing units. This group has grown significantly. Graphics is subdivided into Software and Hardware and is currently 254 people. They work long hours and need to take breaks periodically throughout the day. Graphics staff spend the majority (60-75%) of their time in their workstations, which work well for collaboration but not for productivity. Most people have at least 2 monitors and many have up to 5. Although only 5-20% of their time is spent in meetings, meetings are an important part of their work process. Meetings are typically 5-7 people, 10-12 people, and 30-40 people every other week. Conference rooms are currently undersized and difficult to reserve, causing people to call into meetings instead of attending in person. High quality video conferencing equipment would improve the situation; teleconference often include as many as 20 people in several sites. International clients are becoming more prevalent. Technology needs to be flexible and not built in; equipment is quickly out of date. Smaller conference rooms could suffice with Skype. Whiteboards are highly desired. 0-20% of Graphics’ time is spent in the lab. Privacy rooms would be helpful to have for confidential phone conversations and for 2-3 person meetings; they should all have whiteboards. The majority (60-75%) of Graphics’ work is concentrative; 10-25% of their work is collaborative.

2.4

SENSORS

Sensors is the group that develops and enables sensors such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers, ambient light sensors, proximity sensors and temperature sensors. They also improve the functionality and performance of other Qualcomm technologies like video, audio, camera and GPS. Sensors is comprised of 20 people that are subdivided into two groups: Software Development and Implementation & Testing. Software Development spends the greatest amount of time (40%) in their workstations, with the remainder of their time divided between meetings and lab, although they define their time as spent predominantly in meetings. Their work is equally divided between concentrative and collaborative work. Implementation & Testing, as their name implies, spends the majority (50%) of their time in the lab, with the remainder of their time spent predominantly in their workstations and 15% in meetings. The great majority of their work is concentrative and not collaborative. Two different types of lab space are required, one being standard lab space and the other for specialized equipment (soon adding a robot-arm lab). This specialized lab should be slab on grade in order to reduce vibration and should be located away from elevators or anything else which might cause vibration. A temperature chamber will be inside the lab; a compressor will be outside of the lab. The two labs should be co-located. Conferencing requires Telepresence and other means of video conferencing; meetings often take place over the phone because of lack of conference space. White boards are heavily used and there is a desire to be able to “speak loudly” while conferencing.

* Detailed survey results are not shown as the respondents have been kept anonymous.

Program Summary

OTHER RESPONSES INCLUDED: 1. 2.

A gym (weight & cardio). Individual or shared office (with non-team officemate) instead of cubicle 3. Shower room if possible. 4. It’s easy to spread disease virus in current office building for some reason. Hope the new build can solve the problem. 5. I prefer current office structure in building Q. Cube office is not my liking 6. Please don’t take away personal spaces. Offices area good. 7. Private working spaces 8. My own window office room is important to me. 9. I prefer office with maximum natural light coming to my office. 10. If I was creating a wish list, here are some of the things I would request: access to natural light - either window offices or open floor plan, but sunlight is a must, somewhere to regularly focus without the distractions of a shared office, if it’s an open floor plan then use

high walls, access to healthy food - no more fridges and vending machines filled with sugar - spend some money on something healthy, a well landscaped and natural looking environment - maybe some park space, better parking - I’m tired of the tiny little California spaces and all parking should be covered here in the sun belt, larger and more private restrooms, elevators that work, a bigger gym without the rediculous access codes. In short, make it a healthy, comfortable environment. 11. Should look at google and facebook for models of nice work environments. Better collaborative areas, more fluid arrangement of people - easily form small teams for temp locations based on function groups. 5-6 people working together for 1-2 months at a time etc. 12. Gym, exercise facility 13. Have my own privacy and space for team to come into my office and discuss issues without distrubing any neighbors 14. A combination of quiet time for code development, and collaborating time for meetings, labs.

Program Summary

15. Gym, coffee, good parking space, real offices 16. Having my own office w/ 4 walls. 17. I want to have office on the west side of HWY 5 so I can get down to surf Black’s Beach or La Jolla reefs more quickly at lunch time. ;-) 18. I need a personal space, with a window, and walls, and an office-mate or two, with similar taste in music, so we can develop and rock at the same time.... This is how i’m at my most effective operating mode. 19. Private office space is as important as colloboration area. There are times when we want to focus on our work and not get distracted. Having a temporary quiet zone seldom works as it takes time to get adjusted to a new environment. 20. If we are moving towards an open office env. it is very imp to have a lot of private meeting rooms and conf rooms so that it does not disturb the other employees.

21. It’s of utmost importance to have a choice to work in a serene office environment, yet ability to collaborate in labs and meeting rooms when needed. This is a factor when selecting QUALCOMM as a workplace. If there is no secluded place to work, might as well convert all office spaces to labs. There is no distinction between cubicles and working in a lab in terms of noise, distractions, foot traffic, etc.... 22. Storage space for expensive equipments 23. The most important way for me to do my job to its highest degree is having the necessary tools - enough devices, not needing to borrow devices out, access to network with the devices. It doesn’t matter the space or location, but that the tools work correctly. 24. window office, I love having that

Lab debug sessions with external vendors / companies. Instant Message My team has a daily meeting in the morning where we synch up with the daily tasks and ensure everybody is aware of the latest changes. We have also every Friday breakfast for the whole Sensors team. Right now it is brought to the lab because it is the only safe place for the team to have it available and ensure other teams do not scavenge it. It would be really nice if in the new building we could have our own break room just for sensors team we could do this Friday break fast. Drink coffee Yearly team social

OTHER RESPONSES AND ADDITIONAL COMMENTS INCLUDED: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

non-overlapping projection screens and whiteboards Projectors Projector You’re joking about the sleeping bags, right? LOTS of outlets that are spaced apart at my desk, LOTS of whiteboard space at my desk, tables that change height so I can stand/sit at my desk Projector Beamers to project / share through those large flat screens. The other things that would also work is: working printers and office supplies (staplers, punchers, etc.). Adequate supply of markers, pencils, pens. I does not make any sense for me to go through multiple copy rooms to find out the supplies I need or try to find stapler or puncher that is not beyong my repair skills. Same for printer cartdridges and paper. It would be much faster if there would be adequate spare supply next to the printers. We can change the toner and put paper. Asking clerk email list to do such things takes 1 wk plus after several notifications.

Have Qualcomm childcare center (maybe outsource it to some companies, but close enough to qualcomm so parent can visit their children at lunch) 9. Indoor Bike Locker. Ample Desk Space. Natural light. Quick access to good food. Security of leaving things over night at your desk. Outdoor patio. Free Snacks. Free Food. Ping Pong Room. Game Room. Billiard/Pool Room. 10. Fresh fruit and fruit juice for free. Better cafeteria food. 11. A gym with yoga classes

12. more accessible swimming facility 13. NO CAFETERIA IN AQ/AV/AX 14. bar to get drinks after work, driving range, golf area, soccer field, table tennis room, graphics/computer game room 15. A better equipped gym, 16. free breakfast 17. fitness center 18. Cafetaria, Gym, Subsidized food in cafertia, more parking spaces, more conference rooms, more video conferencing 19. Free cereal. Easy access to gym. 20. free or discount food for lunch. Currently is expensive. Other companies (Google, Yahoo, nVidia) provide free healthy food 21. Gym, swimming pool, cafeteria, more choice of items in vending machines, more tea options, milk creamers, discounted price food on campus 22. it will be great we can have an improved cafeteria with multiple choices of food so that I won’t need to go out for lunch every day! 23. More tennis courts. 24. Sunlight, quiet areas, and healthy food/drinks. Double down on the healthy drinks since soda is total garbage. And for the tea drinkers among us, how about fresh brewed iced tea? The coffee crowd gets no end of options, the tea crowd is stuck with simple tea bags. BTW, the Starbucks teas in the cafeteria are bitter crap. Find out what Panera brews (regular, not the Acai crap) and get some. If you really want to impress us, strike up a deal with Teavanna. Thanks!

25. Yes Coffe maker available at AQ-3rd Floor. 26. I think one thing that could help quite many people would be a place where you can drop your sick or healthy child in case you or your spouse cannot stay at home to take care of him/her or the standard options are not available for some reason. It does not have to be a free service, just a place where you can leave him or her for some time. It should not be a permanent service for any employee, just the last resort option when all normal back-up plans no longer work. It would help single parents for example a lot. 27. Badminton court will be great. Not much of sports other than volley ball courts. And a major of them are located in building Q. 28. The break rooms are very small and most of the time there is not enough space for people to take lunch. The Building names are not mentioned so it’s abig pain to find a building even if you are standing infront of that building. 29. Healthier snacks free of charge Higher quality gym equipment Free meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) 30. Relaxation Pods 31. Game rooms 32. Free or subsidized food. It is a net gain to Qualcomm to keep employees near to work for food breaks, so it seems reasonable to expect decent food at below market prices. It would also be nice to have more free weights in the gyms. 33. Access to the above mentioned (DON’T HAVEs) in Q.29 34. Trolley access (my public transit commute is 2 hours each way), pedestrian-only exercise paths, bicycle-only

exercise paths, private campus, more parking 35. Yes. A Patio/deck/easy-access outdoor space would be helpful for us to take a break or refresh. Besides, it will be helpful if some facility in the office or seperate space can be used to take a short nap when they feel really tired. It willimprove ppl’s productivity. 36. Dining choices for late nights would be good. 37. Open spaces, Better break rooms, Better coffe bars, Better workspaces....... the list can go on. There is no comparision between AZT building and for example building N or QRC 38. Shower Room and Bike stalls. 39. Cafe Gym that is big enough for Yoga/Pilates classes. 40. We need to make our campus more bike friendly. A bike storage room with facilities to fix like an air pump etc. Not many people bike to work despite the dedicated bike lanes and wonderful weather. 41. More parking would be nice. 42. Better break areas Free lunches 43. Beach Volleyball. Cafeteria. Tech Cave. 44. Healthy drink options. Microsoft has 7-8 different flavors of sparkling water, hot apple cider packets, tons of tea options, juice cans, milk cartons, and pepsi/coke products. This is what i want badly! take the same coke budget, and spread it out to milk, cheap canned juice, and natural sparkling water options, that aren’t spreading preservatives around :-) 45. Resting or gaming area to get recharged. 46. qc goodies 47. No cubicles, ever 48. Better Cafeteria 49. fruit juice bar 50. More garden space and greenery

Program Summary

OTHER RESPONSES AND ADDITIONAL COMMENTS INCLUDED: 1. 2. 3.

no favorite colors - Green, Orange :) tablet/ultra book/net book with a Qualcomm chip, for every employee to improve mobility, use in meetings, collaboration. -electric bicycles to allow employees to commute between office buildings instead of relying on shuttle services. 4. shuttle service mira mesa and then 15/805 are very crowded in the morning and afternoon. 5. drab decorations are not inspiring. 6. Better video-conferencing equipment. 7. no 8. The cubicles are noisy and without any privacy, I very much prefer individual enclosed office space 9. 1. Please do not deploy open office concept. it is noisy. people cannot call in for conference at their desk. However, sharing office is not ideal. If we cannot have a priviate office, i prefer a high wall , private cubical 2. Provide ESD equipment on request work office or stations. People are going to steal or bring devices from the lab to their office anyways, so may as well provide the right eqipment to work at their own desk 3. Ban children of employee under 16 to the gym. 10. Read “Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking” by Susan Cain. There is a Harvard Business Review podcast and TED talk about it. Engineers tend to be highly introverted. 11. Improving cell phone signal inside building. 12. ergonomic lab benches, currently bench is too high. 13. More green grass and shady trees for picnicking with co-workers.

14. This survey seemed to be very “innovation” driven, and not so much on the aspect of “productivity.” Certain environments would be better for driving innovation, but others would be considerably better to drive productivity. 15. I just hope when they move me to the new building I can still have a window (I don’t care if I have to share the office or not). 16. Personal space, whether office or cubes, is imperative. It’s embarrassing how overcrowded this campus has become and how so many senior people have to share offices. Since you mentioned color, do something to spice it up around here. The while and weird blue/green walls in my office feel like a sanitarium. 17. Please maintain individual offices for those that want them. I have worked in open space office environments before and find them highly distracting. The the lack of privacy (for phone conversations, one-on-one talks, etc.) in these environments is very concerning, both for myself and those who work around me. It is impractical to have to go to a ‘privacy’ room any time you want to make a phone call and not disturb others. I don’t want to be forced to listen to others collaborate or hear their phone conversations, and I’m sure they don’t want to hear me do the same. Individual offices removes this problem. 18. The Cubicles newly preapred are really bad and the design is horrible. There is no space for books or other things. One person is on phone and others around him/ her goes off work. Height of the cubicles has to be more to give some privacy to the engineers. 19. Working meals are horrible in terms of taste and portion

20. Better quality whiteboard/partitions. The whiteboards are too flimsy. Try to clean it and the whole partition rattles. 21. No 22. One unifying architectural theme would be nice 23. Bigger and multiple monitors would help quite a bit especially for folks who do lot of coding 24. I like private offices rather than cubicles. I like 2 story buildings, and good parking lot is very important. I do appreciate having nice conference rooms like the ones we already have, and suitable equipment with reliable and fast network access. 25. Work spaces need to be more vibrant and colorful. Not just white and green. 26. Everyone wants a window seat and naturally window space is limited. I really annoys me when building planners waste window space with labs or meeting rooms. In my opinion, these common rooms should be interior. 27. Having as much natural light as possible in the offices would be nice. 28. 1. Give the option for partial telecommute 2. Invest in infrastructure for better remote access/login and wireless coverage 29. I am open to cubicles, but I need a place I can work alone also. Windows are the most important thing for me. 30. I love the current setup, if only we could get healthy cold drinks. I love the coffee, the offices, the people, the lab space, everything. I’m not happy about cubes, but if we there is any way to have small-shared window space, with which speakers can be used quietly, i’ll be happy. The view isn’t important, just real, natural light, and some sound-insulation around it to listen to music and work together.

31. I really liked this survey. 32. trainings for contractors 33. Please no cubicles, ever. 34. I think we should share trash car instead of giving each person one for recycled and one for others. It is a waste. 35. Allowing developers the liberty to order any number of technical books for purchase online would be a nice luxury :) 36. I find the inability to upgrade hardware stifling (new policy since 2009). Considering the labour is typically more expensive, why would we have to use computer hardware even less powerful than what we have at home? I routinely waste time waiting for virus scanning to complete because using the computer is completely way too slow while it is happening, for example. Backups that run during office hours is also highly frustrating. Activities that should be transparent, are not. Coupled with slow and old HW, I don’t understand why this policy is still around. 37. Please improve the ambience of a building. If you have been to AQ you will know what I am referring to. It is probably the most un-inspiring building I’ve ever been in.

Type of Work:

Things of lower priority: Flexible space Family Friendly space Current Unsatisfactory Issues: Not proud to show office to guests Does not foster innovation Do not have diversity of spaces Unsatisfactory thermal space Unsatisfactory Acoustics "Cube is too loud to work" Space does not support Qualcomm mission Department Interview Notes: What We Do Design graphic cores / graphic processing units (GPUs) Electronics Design Write code. Use visual communication on boards - white boards are always full Department works long hours - 8am to 6pm or 7pm Breaks during day are good. Department is has largest number of sites for Qualcomm

Program Summary

How We Work Workstations work well for collaboration but not for productivity Department growth has been significant. It was noted that workstations has made this possible. Management is always on the phone. Stairs are important…. Make stairs that are very usable!!!! Visitors could us stairs, too. See their existing stairs as what not to do Put conference rooms near stairs Is familiar with and likes active noise cancelling Offices on the perimeter would be desirable. Qadd has director on the glass. Natural daylight is desirable. Thermal comfort is an issue right now. Like the idea of operable windows. Multi-monitor use, most people have at least 2. There are a few that have up to 5. Meetings and Communication Department has frequent meetings. Would like high quality phone communication capability Phone conversations are often 20 people at each of two sites. Privacy rooms are helpful because of privacy Privacy rooms are used for phone conversation Can be used for one person to make confidential calls. Also for 2-3 people in person meeting Privacy rooms need whiteboards Should not be reservable More we can move the sound from conferences to perimeter would be best Most common meetings are 5-7 people and 10-12 people Their groups come from and their meetings are typically at the Pacific Center in buildings AX, AV, and AQ Reserving a conf room in AQ is very difficult. Department may have more meetings if rooms were available Sometimes the meeting size is bigger than the room itself People call in because they know they can't fit in conference room. Other meetings are with APSS Hardware and Software work with all of Gil’s teams (architecture, modeling and video) At least every other week 30-40 people meetings

Audio is an important Video-conference is important…. Cisco room is heavily used Maybe new building could have smaller rooms too which have less expensive video like Skype Make technology flexible. Built into wall, is too permanent and becomes obsolete quickly Tele-presence…working with international clients are becoming more important Hardware recursive 4-6 people to 8 people… Building for 6-8 people would make sense.. See Microsoft Studio in Redmond Washington

Things to note: Work environment does not support Qualcomm Mission Not innovative No diversity of spaces Does not promote cross communication Unsatisfied with: Acoustics, lighting and thermal comfort Department Interview Notes: What We Do Develops and enables sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscopes, magnetometer, ambient light sensor, proximity sensor or temperature sensors. Also improve functionality and performance of other Qualcomm technologies like video, audio, camera and GPS. How We Work Department is located in San Diego and Santa Clara. Currently 20 people in San Diego. Department has two groups: Software Development (Joshi, San Diego) Implementation & Test (Marko, San Diego) Len is in Santa Clara. Software Development is in meetings most of the time. Implementation & Testing is in the lab most of the time 80/20 and 20/80 switch between the teams for lab vs office use Software Integration and Test, within San Diego Lab requirements One is standard and the other is specialized equipment soon adding a robot-arm lab Robot arm does not require extra ceiling height Lab should be slab on grade to reduce vibration Want to be away from anything causing vibration - like elevators or freight elevator Temp chamber is inside the lab. Compressor would need to be outside. Cable or wire connects them.

Program Summary

There are two labs in Santa Clara that would remain in Santa Clara and be duplicated in San Diego Current labs are Q192 is special lab, Q210 is standard lab They would like to be co-located with lab spaces Software Development is typically not in the lab often but when they are, it's for 8 hours/day. Note - Jennifer will be setting a meeting up to understand lab requirements better. They work with CoreBSP. They also work with Multi-Media architecture, under Gil. Thermal comfort in the labs is more of an issue. Ideally the whole sensors team would be co-located (to share 'Tribal Wisdom'/Office Chatter) More integration/more collaboration and face-to-face communication Sensors is currently 50/50 between San Diego and Santa Clara. When asked if they’d move Santa Clara to San Diego or vice versus the answer was “We hire the best people wherever they are" Meetings and Communication Very good audio is needed Tele-presence rooms are used regularly with 6-10 people… Systems engineering is a group that they tele-presence with Use other means of video conferencing… It is hard to organize meetings because rooms are not available so they are having to meet over the phone Implementation & Test's daily meetings are commonly 13 people Also Implementation has spontaneous meetings for 6 people when they can find rooms. Need white boards that allow impromptu meetings away from workstations. Would like meeting rooms where they can speak loudly and use markerboards. Conference rooms need markerboards but do not put them behind the screen.

Things of Lesser Importance in this project (comparatively) Flexible Space Family Friendly (leave family at home) Space doesn’t support Qualcomm mission Proud to show visitors Space does not: (checked all choices) Foster Innovation Offer diversity of spaces Daylight and views Best place to do my work Thermal comfort Department Interview Notes: What We Do CoreBSP (Baseband Signal Processor) makes the boards on which all chips are built /placed How We Work CoreBSP is a big software team. 324 people or 329 if including ADT (Apt?) Department has Software Development and Testing teams Most people spend time 50% in workstations and 50% in lab Testing is more labs. New people pick their office for view, seasoned people choose theirs per temperature (southwest corner of blg is very warm) 30-50 people per Team. 8-10 people per Sub-Teams. Sub Teams work closely (turn around and talk with one another) They mentioned the ‘cul-de-sac’ idea. Reduces traffic to just that of the team/ those on the cul-de-sac. Tallet mentioned he likes the workstations. The break room centrally located in middle of the floor ie. AQ 10th floor Ventilation for break room is desired to vent aroma

They would like art or decoration or something on the walls. Building R has kid’s artwork Meetings and Communication Meeting rooms with views would be nice They work nationally and internationally, Boulder, Boston, Toronto, San Jose, Santa Clara, Austin They like tele-presence rooms but they need whiteboards Currently almost all conferences are scheduled because improptu meetings occur in offices. They would like more rooms for 2 to 4 people conferences/meetings. 4 people tele-presence (or similar low tech option) for fewer attendees is desired Note. Confidential information on whiteboards should not be visible through exterior windows or from corridors where visitors may pass They like the Share board in Room 724 Meeting room ideas/identifiers look at Microsoft Would like digital reservation system displaying room use on Conf Rooms (or equal less expensive option)

Unsatisfied with: Thermal Comfort Light Acoustics Department Interview Notes: What We Do Support engineers with equipment and hardware. Provide Walk-Up Center How We Work Walk-Up Center should be bright and fun to encourage engineers to utilize Walk-Up service Walk-Up is: A desk or counter with 1 check-in monitor 1-2 people man the desk. (who will need a workstation within Department) Space in front of desk or counter for engineers to queue up Seating for 2 or 3 waiting Behind counter needs space for rack of equipment Adjoining room(s) houses equipment and boxes - everything from headsets to 60" monitors Would like space to break down boxes (somewhere) New Walk-Up Center needs to be nearly twice as big as current. Existing Room 940A in AQ might be too large. Near a loading dock Deliveries arrive daily. Big bins come and go from department for recycling and trash. Streamliners (flat bed dolly) are used for deliveries Rolling equipment carts are used to move equipment around inter-departmentally They use freight elevator now because they are on 9th floor Visitor access to (public side of) Walk-Up Center could be its own entrance to the building. Accessible to all APSS groups on this campus, as well as some from other groups. Entire department needs to be near the Walk-Up Center but organized so Walk-Up Center is easier than going to an Eng Op's workstation. Department headcount is currently 12. Plan for 25 people (includes Raul's group) Eng Ops do meetings, email, talking to people, hardware support, testing equipment Need quiet environment

Quiet environment is very important to them Software engineer, needs quiet. No lab space Department needs a way to police equipment. Especially equipment left on their desk. Their current environment is ‘really bad’. All hard walled offices. Meetings and Communication Twice a week, team meeting with 25 people. A quick, stand up meetings are ideal They typically use lync meetings (not ideal due to acoustics), in person meetings white boards, projectors Lots of conf calls. Everyone has headsets. Everyone need to be able to focus Department employees interfaces with engineers via IM
