GF survival as a mediocre company is good

I know many of us hate GF as it has terrible, toxic and totally incompetent leadership every where from CEO to first line manager. My view is that with extreme competition in industry, it is better for best talents to be at those top companies like... — read more

On semi, Wolfspeed all doing better than GF

GF is sinking because of wrong, boot lickers and incompetent leaders eating it daily. There was no reason for GF to sink this low. It was definitely avoidable. We all feel ashamed to tell outside that we are GF employees. Not sure how long company... — read more 

Next headcount reduction coming in September

Seems this round will be mostly experienced expensive employees who could be replaced with trained newer employees. Still need 40% headcount reduction to meet benchmark financials.

No one really cares now

With most of talent gone. GF has become a place where needy like me come to do something to get paid and go. No enthusiasm, no innovation, no creativity, no challenge.. Just a place for some of us who could not leave or need a place to earn for... — read more

See ya!

New job offer accepted! Gave 2 weeks notice this morning. I’m leaving Malta in the rear view mirror. 😊

If GF makes a voluntary offer

It is very unrealistic to happen, but in the hypothetical case that GF gives us the opportunity to leave voluntary, I wonder how many employees would stay here?

Uh oh.
