Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

Dont lie. Fake post. Most in Q are endians.

Guys, don’t fight each other. This is Qcom management failure to control on diversity instead of sending emails on stopping it. One thing I should mention is if you are selected at Qcom you are best. Management is simply not able to maintain diversity.

"why don't you create your own business in India"
flash news : I am not even from there! There are regions/countries beyond south Europe, China, India... you wouldn't know as you probably never went to school and just embezzled your degrees to land in QC. I will state three facts. Be honest and give me the truth score. Zero being all false and three being all true. Lets play!

1. you are non-color
2. you are American
3. you only have friends of type 1 and/or 2.

Please use google maps + wiki and educate yourself on geography. Its free and will save your embarrassment :D

Please don’t bother…. Respectfully 😊

OP is an Arab: south of Europe

All the white, brown, black, yellow, pink, orange and purple people who keep talking sh-t here, go work at McDonalds. You don’t belong here. Qualcomm doesn’t promote these values, please behave yourself

Great decision, with that type of mentality we don’t need you here. Good luck!

"why dont you GTFO."
why don't you create your own business in India
i don't understand why you cannot

OP here, after talking with some of my trusted colleagues and reading the wise replies on this thread, I contacted the recruiter and told him I won't be moving forward with the interview due to lack of diversity, and he wished me luck.
It is sad to read some of the immature replies here offending nationalities you don't know anything about. I am not even Italian or Greek. Chill out guys!

I might have hit a sore point and he went divide by zero...confirmation that he needs to be on the next list as he is unable even go control his emotions at toddler"s level.

@oge+1vXT
why dont you GTFO. There are tons of SV startups who get VC funding only because one of the founding members is from IIT. And I must accept hands down, some of the folks from IITs are geniuses. But does that mean all the average workers from India are as brilliant no?
One founder from south Europe doesn't glorify all of south Europe. As someone said, I'd rather do the grind with south Asians who are active workers and are responsive; your south Europe brethren is just lazy, too proud of their nationalities and also TOO LOUD plus they have loads of chips on their shoulders and my my, they work in silos too. NYC would have never got this worse without those sicilian ar5e5. GTFO and back to Italy you %cu-bags.

can confirm the hoardimg when the colleagues are majority chinese or indian but hey! my current colleagues are majority italians and i see the same hoarding behaviour. I wouldnt ever want to work with italians again. And please, someone teach these barbarians how to talk in a cultured way (loud, aggressive etc) + after seeing them i realized that an italian is a bigger expert in bowing down to his boss than an indian or chinese ever could be

"If they are loath to hire people outside their ethnicity - You can bet your opportunities in these groups would be less than others."

yup, decisions are made purely on race but no one calls them out on it
stay away from those groups if you are the odd person you will be first one on the chopping block, they protect their own behinds
it happens at other companies too, it is easy to see

I worked at Q for 13 years. About 10 years ago, I noticed the environment had become toxic. I left and have been very happy about my decision.

With regard to race. While I was at Qualcomm, someone posted something about "try to find an Indi&n" manager who had non-Indi&ns working for him. I found a few but noticed there were giant silos of Indi&n and Chin&se only groups. The groups were significant in size (20 to 30+ people). My thought is why would you want to work for one of these ethnic ghett$s if you aren't in their ethnicity. If they are loath to hire people outside their ethnicity - You can bet your opportunities in these groups would be less than others.

One of the QCOM founders is from "the poor southern European countries" . Another poster who should be in the GTFO list for being clearly too stupid to articulate a cogent thought

South euro are countries like Italy, Spain, Greece and etc… very poor countries and economy. I don’t like people from these countries to work for Qualcomm because that will add more people rest and vest. I know working style of these south Europeans, they are so lazy. I prefer people from US, west/east Europeans(UK, German and France), south/east Asia (Japan, Taiwan, Korea,China and india) at least they are working.

This post make groups of ppl from South Asia excited? By the way, where is south europe?

Totally Agree, we should have more Indian instead of Chinese.

team is 100% chinese, so the poster is chinese too otherwise the team would not be 100% chinese. Then he goes. I have no problem as a chinese in a 100% chinese group. Somebody should put this guy in the next reduction list LOL

Get used to working 996, and learning Mandarin and Telugu after hours. Ni Hao, glory to CCP!

What you join is not Qualcomm, no 996 work in Qualcomm. If Qualcomm has 996 work, Q stock will not be like this.

Everyone is rest and vest!

My team is also 100% Chinese, not sure if you are interviewing for my team. Actually most of Qualcomm is Indian so it's still a little unusual to see 100% Chinese team. At first I also had my doubts working with them but actually they are pretty chill. I don't feel overworked or anything. Sometimes I feel the south Asian groups have it harder. Just make sure to really get to know your manager first at the interview before u make any decisions

Unfortunately, This is the south East Asian meat grinding sweatshop Qualcomm Way

Don't join. My 2 cents. Stay with Qualcomm

What you described is what you need to expect. There are some exceptions but that is the way they operate. You need to countrrbalance that by not being 100% open and avoid any of your critical knowledge to reach them. If they are the majority as you described you are better of finding a different group where they are not the majority. Or get a position and then in 6 months move internally to a different group. I can tell you that you will not like to be in such a group.

Good luck!

If you concerned, then don’t go to interview. Going to interview with such mood and brain as an adult will fail 100 percents.
