Sounds like the deal will be terminated, due to insurmountable roadblocks.

Sounds like the deal will be delayed. What’s the net that no more offers will go out today or tomorrow?

I'm nearly certain Broadcom management probably told Raghu not to go ahead with it.

Like are you kidding me "scheduling conflicts"?? These leaders prob have assistants that plan out meetings and have access to everyone calender's but somehow a scheduling conflict happened and no one noticed until the day of the meeting lmao

I had my lunch scheduled at this time, sorry guys!!!!! If I had known, I would moved it!!!!

Maybe Raghu went on an all night co----e and alcohol bender and needs time to recover and find an ill-fitting shirt before hitting the stage

I would not be surprised if Hock blocked the execs from speaking out.

If they really wanted to come with an excuse to bail and avoid this call, they would have done it a long time ago, and not the night before (or would have never scheduled it).

Not meeting with SAMR at that time - it would be midnight Thursday PM in China.

"We regret the cancellation but due to some unforeseen scheduling conflicts, we will not be hosting the All-Employee Town Hall on Thursday, October 26.

Please stay tuned for further updates.

Thank you for your understanding."

Did they mention the all hands meeting got cancelled due to "unforeseen circumstances"?

Unforeseen circumstances.

This has been rough, it has now gone too far into high drama territory.

But, all things in perspective; we keep getting our paychecks. Whatever is happening is happening well above our pay grade so nothing we can control; other than either leaving, or staying and getting on board.

what are on their schedules?
busy on reading unofficial channel, plan for Q4? or simply too scared?
Just select an answer and be honest.

They don’t even have to answer any questions. It was supposed to be a no Q&A tv only session.

Come on, show some backbone and touted epic2 value.

Even if you don’t answers to anything, the least you can do is have a proper farewell to the people who have provided the wind under your parachute.

They have no answers when 40% of the company have been let go/ will be let go at the end of close on Monday, which is going ahead as planned.

This thing has turned into a soap opera. Unfortunately we are not actors but real life people and there are no multiple takes.

The leadership has failed us again.
