Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

There's no such thing as safe at Qualcomm

A few years ago I witnessed the best guy on our team fired in a thirty second phone call and I haven't forgotten since that day that nothing here is safe.

@v2 even if AI isn’t there yet, the CEOs of the world think it will be. So they are laying off people to fund the AI infrastructures they need to build for the promise of AI. As for the offshoring, they are pretty sc--wed themselves as that’s where the easier coding work goes. That will be the first to get cut because AI can actually do their job and will be cheaper still.

@tk AI is overrated, it has some use but mostly it is a marketing hype. As usual, the AI companies attempt to sell nonexistent business opportunities.

@r0 completely agree. When we hit 30% or 40% unemployment, we are all going to look back fondly on the days where outsourcing was our biggest concern.

Actually reducing the US workforce is the best strategy for Q now. Modem tech. is no longer high tech, and there is not much to invent for now.

@qa They keep the shut down American offices on their website too, to make it seem like they still have a significant presence in the US. Total scam.

@qa If you all think outsourcing jobs to India is the problem, you seriously aren’t paying attention. AI is going to take all the jobs. US, India, name your country…next 5+ years will be a blood bath.

If you pass the curry stink test then you are safe. Otherwise chopping board is your justice. Now wanna smell like Masala? Make up your mind!

Stop the outsourcing of jobs to Chennai and Hyderabad. Americans are getting scammed by the top executives and Wall Street.. they are getting rich by outsourcing American manufacturing and tech industry for decades.

Qualcomm has shutdown offices in Bay Area and shifted thousands of jobs to Asia. Greed will ki-l innovation and future generation will suffer from lack of jobs here.

The most respected member of my team was laid off two months after he got promoted. If you’re not Indian, you’re always on the chopping block.
