In any acquisition, lay-off is pretty much unavoidable.

Here is my prediction...

  • WD eventually will get their hands on Toshiba's NAND. Without Toshiba NAND, and steady supply of NAND, WD is doomed.

-Once WD get a hold on Toshiba's memory business (Toshiba Memory Corp (JP) and Toshiba Memory America (US)) by next March at the latest, layoff from TMC/TMA side will be fast and painful.

TMC/TMA's H/W Groups - gone

TMC/TMA F/W Groups - gone

TMC/TMA Validation Groups @ Folsom - gone

TMC/TMA Marketing Groups - gone

TMC/TMA HR - gone

TMC/TMA Finance Group - gone

TMC/TMA ASIC Groups - gone

according to credible source, it all depends on TOSHIBA acquisition.

If we got TOSHIBA, layoff is not avoidable.

I've talked to my VP - he's always sincere (either says no or no comment). This time it's a NO.
