Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

Mass resignations instead of mass layoffs

Why we The Engineers have to be dependent on any company. If we can make a company Great we can break it also.
I wish we had that unity and power to tell them.
But everyone is so consumed in their own world and problems we are slaves of our own compulsions and insecurities.

I wish we the engineers are treated fairly and with due respect which we deserve rather than a number on a balance sheet.
This complete industry is rotten by the same mindset. We need a revolution and let it start with Qualcomm.

Mass resignation? A pipe dream. First of all, not everyone has the financial means to support their families while being voluntarily unemployed without a backup plan. A mass walk out/resignation is never gonna work in reality.

At least if you get riffed you have severance and unemployment to keep you afloat for a bit while you’re looking.

Not gonna happen. You own your career, control it yourself. Don't let an employer take over your future.

Nobody forces you to work at Qualcomm. Complaining is pointless. All companies focus on the bottom line. Employees are just pawns and expendable cannon fodder in an elitist game. Why pay US salaries for work that can be done in India? If you think you can be treated better elsewhere, then leave. Nothing is stopping you. Don’t kid yourself…upper management won’t miss you.
