We should not keep quiet, we should raise our voice against this leadership!

The writing was on the wall when TI got in bed with Elliot. Look what they did to Southwest Airlines.
@e3 I totally agree with you on that!! The money was allocated TO MAKE CHIPS HERE IN THE US!!! It should be revoked if there is any outsourcing outside of the US, but who is monitoring this? Who do you complain to?
@OP sure didn't take long from the billions in chip act funds to mass layoff and outsourcing jobs to India. Does the government care about that? can't believe the press isn't reporting on this! making a mockery of Trump and "bringing back jobs to the US"
H1B holders also lost their jobs. Don’t get distracted. Layoffs after raising a dividend? I read that as: short term profits>people and long-term strategy. Unless someone can tell me how a layoff every quarter translates to “thinking like an owner for the long term” or whatever.
Only thing I can figure is all the uncertainty caused by the current political/geopolitical climate means aggressive cost cutting is necessary. But idk, that also seems like a problem that collective bargaining could address.
@ah Has the Elliot group been driving change since 2020? That is about how long the CIO has been driving people out.
Is the Elliot group also ok with sharing IP with India? A lot of roles have been sent to India. In addition, there are H1B holders that were sent to Dallas to replace people that were already doing the job.
In my >30 yr career in semis through multiple down turns I've been hearing about unionization since the beginning. There are so many widely disparate roles and functions that it will never happen, even with fab operators which is the only job function for which it might make sense.
I'm not. It is the d-mbest thing I have ever heard. "Let the workers take over the means of production." Socialism su-ks. You get one vote: work for management, or don't.
I’d say unionize, but I don’t see how it stops corporate from hiring scabs.
@an thats a great idea. Who else are with this idea?
Raise our voice? How about we create a union, that'd prevent most of this.
Leave a glassdoor review highlighting this. That is the best way for now
It is not the leadership, it is the shareholders driving change. The Elliott Group is driving all the changes at TI, the execs are having to pivot with micro-managing constantly from the Elliott Group. I am in a fairly close position to TMG management and have a small window into the meetings at the Haviv and Yunus level. I have been told the meetings have been tense lately with Elliott and they keep overruling the execs.
Don't think that can change anything..
@a1 thats why we need to protest as a team
For all the talk about inclusion, and being a space to be yourself you probably know leadership here is anything but forgiving, you say something they don’t like and if you are fu---d… so how?
