Thread regarding Synopsys Inc. layoffs

@tk Virtually everyone is in US is an immigrant, except native americans...

@sv
For both companies EMEA is becoming a larger market,
and both companies have immigrant founders,
Fluent ( a big part of Ansys) was founded by Bharatan Patel, synopsys founder is also an immigrant.
US companies will offshore to MARS if it saves a penny in short term.
Try changing wall street greed and enacting laws that incentivize keeping jobs in US

Buyout program, any real chance?

@nj dang you spilled the tea muh mans.

Those people are arrogant also and lack empathy

Look at the genius boasting about 30% indian headcount in cadence , my god these people are insufferable

@mf LIke the last point (retirement program).

@n5 if i were u i would quit, thanks.

@mw there's a difference between talent and cheap labor

@mw so why exactly are those 4k-5k geniuses scared to open a company in their own country, are they that desperate to take up 30% jobs of an American company?

This has nothing to do with racism , go play victim else where.

Spamming dislike doesn't change the facts.

@g3 Cadence Design Systems employs approximately 4,200 to 5,000+ people across its various Indian facilities, which accounts for nearly 30% of their global workforce. So Mr racist the problem is somewhere else!!

• Cut 3..4 hierarchy levels out of the currently 9 levels. 9 levels is way ridiculous for a supposed hightech company.
• Remove dead wood across all levels, test all employees if they really have the right qualification for their jobs, consequently train/requalify the keepers
• Remove all those non-performance big shots like M.E. and his whole entourage
• Relaunch a completely new hr department with new hr leaders @top 3 levels
• Get the Ansys integration done, finally - stop dismantling a once flourishing company.
• Offer an early retirement program

If I were Sassine, I would have focus on sales, AE, and engineering. I just cannot imagine we have many executive directors who only mange 3 or 4 people.

@gv Looks like I am not the only person who expects a buyout program like Microsoft.

If I were Sassine, I'd set up a voluntary retirement package so all that don't want to be here can leave.

@fy nothing racist about cutting off inefficient subpar talent, make your own company in your country if you're that talented and see how that goes.

Bet you can't.

We don't need you , you need us , don't be ungrateful

@fy nothing racist about cutting off inefficient talentless hacks , make your own company in your country if you're that talented and see how that goes.

Bet you can't

@fw I am sure any indian colleague has much higher efficiency and contribution than the cowboy clown with his dirty dating/ flirting stories!! Stop nonsense and racist comments.

Shut down the India offices , they don't contribute much , the talent is sub par at best and slow in execution

@OP Do nothing, compensation is guaranteed either way (success or failure)

I think you're misunderstanding HIS plan - get the stock price up, up, up in the short term.
Cash out and boast that he completed the biggest merger in history.
Having happy, productive employees and a functional company with a long term vision isn't part of that.

@ac It's easy to say, but difficult to act. EDA job market is a small niche. Finding a good job is difficult.

@OP cash out and disappear

If Sassine offers a buyout program, I will take it.

I would retire early.
