Another wrong call by Management

Why did they chose Apopka over NC, last time when I went to Apopka for training, my trainers were very rude and had no intention to train me. I wasted my three days over there. I think Apopka site should be number one in shutting down list.

Future

At least in NC we still have a chance at a future with the possibility of a sale. The Fab in FL is so worthless that it can’t be sold, it is just going to be shut down and dismantled.

What is happening?

We get an email in NC telling us that they are selling our FAB, but that was all we were told. Does anyone have any legit answers? What will happen to all the employees currently working in our FAB? has anyone heard who may be buying us?

If the some of the original founders of RFMD were still with the company this would not be happening,. They actually cared about the employees and what the Company is capable of doing and what it stood for, no greedy mergers, buying things we don't... — read more

This will be the last straw for many of us

In our department it was pretty much the dead wood that got hit. My shift was untouched. the department has been morbidly under-staffed and overloaded with work and resposibilities for a long while. The dead wood at least produced some work, and now... — read more

My Thoughts

Going into this merger, TQ had activist investors seeking to break up the company. Meanwhile RF was plodding along, but not really making any money. So now we are three years into the merger, gross margins still low and still playing second fiddle to... — read more

Layoffs need to solve the bloated management issue

Hopefully this RIF will include management also. The alignment effort when RFMD acquired TriQuint was weak and resulted to far too many tiers within the org. We now have Directors reporting to Directors and Managers reporting to Managers. Nobody... — read more

Qorvo has too many employees

Sad part is most employees know nothing about finance. For all high-paying high-tech employees, if you earn a good income in the 30s, try branching out and investing on other business and you will learn some basic finance. This company has $3B... — read more

Goodluck to Texas Instruments!

Good luck to Texas Instruments if they are planning to buy Qorvo because Qorvo's nepotism and moron management is capable of shutting down TI.

18 Millions in compensation by the 5 top executives

Hopefully we see at the very minimum a 30% reduction in compensation there too, so that "we can fine tune the organization." With what Bob made in 2016, we could have saved at least 60 engineers, and probably more than 100 technicians. What a shame.
