Need more toilet paper?
last heard, 15%.. then 20%... now 30% ???
So, 30% to be RIF'ed across all levels! Some sites already asking for volunteers. Better raise your hand before they reduce the severance package.
Do the math
@3lzl+1lY6vjQc..Source?
Where did you find the $144m number? YIKES!!
It came out Finally - $144,000,000 dividend paid out today. That’s $0.70 per share, the highest ever paid out, while it’s all melting down and When the company is at its lowest.
I told y’all to have patience….now wait for the bigger news.
@3xon, um I’m pretty sure we laid off all of our IT / Computer Hacker type people. So WD’s problem wasn’t us, give me a ring on the old desk phone so we can talk…. Nope! ain’t got a phone cause cost savings. I swear I’m living in some sort F’d up real life Dilbert cartoon!
Seagate actors hacked WD’s online storage?
I'm guessing it's an HAMR announcement from Seagate that "Tommorow it comes out"
"As a result of this progress, we now expect to launch our 30-plus terabyte platform in the June quarter, slightly ahead of schedule," said Mosley. "The speed of the initial HAMR volume ramp will depend on a number of factors, including product yields and customer qualification timelines."
Look closely …see what’s going on with WD. Who is responsible?
Please tell me your not referring to the light saber drives.
General Frosty becoming interim CEO? Corporate jet being renamed as "Air Frost One"? Marshall Law implemented at all sites?
Cancellation of HAMR and termination of entire R&D team? We finally giving up?
It is not rumors, this is real. Intense emotions
Wuxi shutdown imminent. Wuxi top execs fleeing China and seeking shelter in singapore. leftover commoner employees will be chopped off soon. US and China execs meet in China next week on the pretext of “China Submit” to discuss shutdown plans.
Y'all this is nothing but rumors and lies. It said tomorrow 2 days ago, obviously nothing is happening. Get back to work and save your money.
Folks, read the OP. It says ‘Tomorrow’ ! Why the rush ?
Was the dividend paid out today?
I'm anxiously waiting! Did it come out? Did it take many wipes to clean up after?
New James Bond movie?
Still waiting!!!
Yawn
Anything?
Licensing the IP crown jewels? Most of our own company doesn't know squat about HAMR. But since he gave away way too much previous IP crown jewels to that LiDAR company and then some, I could totally believe it. Desperation mode is ON.
- Wuxi factory closing down
- SSDC virtual DC closing down
These two should be in the priority action list
They need to license Seagate IP on HAMR technology to WD and Toshiba so that customers will have two or three suppliers to choose from if they want HAMR for their projects.
Combining? Ha, there is a comment for that: "Two Turkeys Do Not Make An Eagle".
But at this point anything is possible.
Hmm. Let me see what could be announced that would be shocking at this point. Another layoff. Nope. Design center closing. Hmm. Nope. An IT department with their heads out their ... laptops. Not a freakin chance. WD and Seagate combining. Now that would be worth the wait. You heard the rumor here first.
Just hold on, a bit more patience. Imagine the drama underway at this moment.
Day is over and nothing happened. Another useless thread.
Mandatory physical training must be completed before first daily meeting.
OPEC+ raised oil prices
@ono+1lY6vjQc: Nobody knows. People making sh!t up because they have too much free time.
How about Wuxi, SSDC?
Fremont gone. TCO + LCO consolidate into LCO gradually.
No more SSDC?
Three locations to be consolidated into one in the US 🤔
Well I have an ominous meeting put on my whole teams calendar for today, so I’ll report back.
The sun?
