So I see a post on LinkedIn from a certain qcom VP on "what a great honor" it was to host stem/advantage students to qcom labs. The gall of qcom making US students think they too may have a career a qcom if they pursue a stems degree. Yah, right! ... — read more 

Why happened? I’m surprised that Q couldn't retain such a talented leader

I check this site to keep up with any layoff info, but it seems to have more posts from trolls than at other sites. Makes me wonder of a lot of ex-Q were actually trolls.

Or will mediocre performance continue to be acceptable with for those with superior sycophant capabilities?

Includes principal or staff engineers then directors and VP. Majority of them are not doing anything instead minting money. We can run the companies more efficiently without them.

On Linkedin, I see qcom praising the TJ facility. From mgmt, I hear they are doing great. From fellow engs, I here they are lagging hard. From those of you that work with them, what the real scoop on how TJ is performing? Will qcom's hopes of... — read more 

It’s becoming really tiresome. If there were a prospect of a decent raise or advancement, and if it were temporary, then fine. But I’m overworked and getting nothing in return. Well, not exactly. I get the chance to be laid off at the first... — read more

When semi company stocks go up, we didn’t follow, when go down we go fastest.

Just imagine what our stock price would be if qcom had a strong, competent leadership team. Instead, we have a bumbling, sloppy group of wannabes at the helm. Is there any hope... grant a Christmas wish... or are we Scrooged???

Modem guy. Chop. Chop. Chop.

Professor who explained how AI works to numbers guys ? CFO who cannot do the numbers ? Diversification guru who tried too hard to please but had nothing substantial ?

go out last week of March. Announcement before next ER. Expect restructure never seen in qcom history. Some high level exits. Leaked info. Notes taken.

all have at minimum shown 3X to 20X growth in revenue and stock price in last few years. Q with same revenue and stock price. Intel fired their CEO, Q needs to do the same and fire empire builder AP along with CA.

CA is listening?

Some people are saying here that all they got so far was the warning from a manager. I haven’t got any warning yet, and I’m hoping they are in no hurry with notices.

Most employees have RSUs and buy into ESPP, which makes us shareholders. Can we not lobby the board to fire the CEO?

Can Q stock capital gain beat S&P 500? Is it a good time to buy a house @SD?

If so, how do you manage situations where you're told to rate someone lower than they deserve? I personally can't imagine doing that. Does it ever feel wrong to you, or is it just part of the job? I'm curious if you find it hard to make that call or... — read more 

Prepare for more layoffs folks. Stock is already down on this news.

Has anyone got the non compliance notice yet?

What all does DVC do anyway? IMO they’re the biggest waste of company resources. Leadership should be looking there to reduce headcount before other areas. Tell me I’m wrong…
