Are the layoffs done?
From what I'm hearing, the number of those laid off this week is not that high, to the point that I am worried it is far from over. Could we be looking at more layoffs in the next week or two or was this really it? Also, am I misunderstanding the... — read more

Almost wish they would get it over with
Almost wish they would get it over with, but every day is a little more money and a little more time if there is severance. I hate dreading every time someone calls and says I have a phone call. Everyone is nervous and on pins and needles.
Life after Qorvo
I was a laid off candidate after a long Career and in my mid-fifties. I started a job search and I wish I could say it wasnot easy. However I was incredibly fortunate to land a new position at a company that wanted/needed my experience. This may come... — read more

Bonus and Tax Cuts
I just saw a National TV station claim all the US companies giving a bonus to employees due to tax cuts. I saw Qorvo‘s logo claiming to give bonuses due to the tax cuts. My question is, did anyone get a bonus due to Trumps tax cut? FL didn’t
WTF!!!!
WTF??? I still cannot believe that this has been going on this long and still no one is talking or letting us know when we are losing our jobs. Bob, at least show us some due respect for us providing you with all your money and your big houses... — read more
This Web Site blocked by Qorvo IT
May be some truth in all the rumors. Qorvo IT has blocked this web site from their system at the Greensboro location.
Been Working From Home
Has anyone else been 'disrespectful' of the WFH policy? It's not that I don't appreciate my job, it's that I'm smart enough to realize I do a better job from home. So if they fire me for doing my job well (from home), then I feel it's their loss, not... — read more
Horrible Health Benefits
Worthless insurance benefits. I need medicine a monthly basis. Qorvo and UHC have me pay 394 a month out of pocket with their plan. I have never ever had this kind of horrible insurance. Obamacare was much, much better and the same price
More layoffs next week?
What are the chances we'll be having layoffs at GSO next week? People have been talking in the office about Fl being hit with small to medium scale layoff in the past several weeks. It looks like Qorvo is determined to implement these cuts that will... — read more
"bagging" tools
As tools get "bagged" for lack of need, will they need even less of us to run them and maintain them. The distances between equipment will make it harder to spot problems.
Does anyone know when Facilities is getting cut
As part of an Shared Service is Facilities safe.
VSP Round 2
Time to offer up VSP Round 2. Many would take it now due to the uncertainty and save jobs for those who really want to work for Qorvo and make it succeed.

Severance options
I am working in Nc, as we all know layoffs are coming and i was wondering, when employee is laid off, does Qorvo give an option to choose between receiving severance in one major installment or in several smaller ones? I'm mainly asking because taxes... — read more

Need honest Opinion
I was thinking of quitting, but one look around this board made me have second thoughts. Just look at our workload, you'll know what I'm talking about. Are there greener pastures out there, or is it all pretty much the same and I should just s--- it... — read more
Greensboro fab
Management is in hiding. No one wants to be around to answer any questions. Even if there is nothing new, why not just tell us there is nothing new, instead of ignoring us.
Is there another round of layoff coming
Is there another round coming. Some department were not touched.
our money in Avenue C
How do we get our balances back from Avenue C or does Qorvo get to keep it.
Unacceptable mistake by HR
How come Qorvo-Hr is allowing competitior's wives to work in Qorvo and have them full access to all the information about qorvo? What a perfect recipe for the epic failure.

Remaining Employees At Qorvo
After the last Major Layoff .. it’s sad while walking thru the fabs it’s a skeleton crew running what ever operations are left. Yet some people in AIT, metals and Litho are laughing about the layoffs.... Some stating they will not get layoff now... — read more
AIT should be narrowed down
Half of them are lazy f---s that sit in front of a computer all day only looking for imperfections plus they steal time
Tax breaks for the new building
With all of us getting laid off shouldn't the tax breaks on the new buildings that were based upon increasing jobs, go away. Shouldn't we let our representatives know what is happening so the taxes stay in the community and not go to Oregon or Texas.
M&A
Skyworks and Qorvo merger makes more sense to deal with powerful broadcom.
