Thread regarding Qualcomm Inc. layoffs

Criteria for layoff

  1. Many Contractors shall be shown the door

  2. If your business unit is not bringing in cash ( or running in loss ). It'll most likely suffer. The good candidates as well.

  3. Amalgamation of multiple business lines forcing higher management level cuts.

  4. Underperformers irrespective of businesses unit, shall be let go.

  5. Any past rift with manager or team is usually fatal.


Based on my experience having seen a few layoffs.

PO you seem to be very knowledgeable on layoff matters, how big a layoff has to be for the CEO to actually talk about it? Last time qualcomm layoff 600 workers (official figure) and S&M didn't bother to make a comment, not a single squawk came from his mouth delegating the inconvenience of delivering the bad news to other executives. What is the headcount to deserve 1min of CEO speech?
