Ever since these guys took over the company direction, strategy, profitability, stock price, market credibility, employee morale are all gutted. A massive buyback was engineered leading to gross loss of market cap bigger than the buyback!! The CFO... — read more
Qualcomm and layoffs
Corporations are people. They are cute as babies then grow up to be psychopaths. Everyone in Qualcomm has been walking around and saying it is not Erwin’s company anymore for years now. The culture at Qualcomm is hire as many H1Bs as you can, move as... — read more
My sources say the 820 sucks because...
most of the really talented designers have long left the Q and went to Apple. And what we got now working on the crapdragon are a bunch of mediocre folks from overseas... Discuss.
I am a PdM and want to learn how to be like Susan Lansing of WhyWait fame
Susan, how did you manage to push the WhyWait ad campaign through for funding? How did you game the PMO for approval? On my PLRB slides, i always show a path to revenue, but somehow people don't have the confidence to give approval for my product or... — read more
820 is very good. xiaomi is going to use it. no worry. so far so good
back to work people, have a good weekend
If you think it's bad at the Q...
My buddies over at a competitor in SD just sent me this email..... Hey it's bad everywhere in this industry. Look what just happened at my employer. Total assholes. Looks like while temp employees gain sick pay due to the law changes, pretty much... — read more
Is Why Wait (without the question mark) the stupidest advertising campaign of all time? (with the question mark)
Can't believe the marketing genius decided this was the best they could come up with while the company sinks.
Survey: First, how many of you used both earners' incomes to qualify for your mortgage?
Second, what is your level of concern for making ends meet for 6mo to 1yr with one income lost, on a scale from 1 to 10 (not concerned at all to extremely concerned)?
How is life after Qualcomm? Those who were laid off from Qualcomm, is you life better or worse?
Please comment.
52 Week low!.... $61/share here we come...
JANA!!!! DO SOMETHING!!!!
Paul should run for President 2016!
I think Irwin might be a long shot,due to his age, but I would not put it past him since Regan did ok well in to his 80s. I think Paul would have a good shot as an independent candidate although his army of lobbyist have always been republican... — read more
Currently the plan isn't spin-off the chip unit, guess what the plan is? Why wait?
"The company is always evaluating its options and that the situation could change in the future" http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/30/us-qualcomm-chips-idUSKCN0PA09720150630?feedType=RSS&feedName=technologyNews
Look Who is Selling Q Stock
EVP Human Resources Michelle M. Sterling, $200, 613, June 26, half her shares. ____ President, QC, Derek Aberle, $981,433.96, June 15, has lot left. ____ Why Wait
Why is everyone so afraid of layoffs?
The only thing better than GTFO of a shhole like the Q is to GET PAID to GTFO of said shhole
Who’s your friend who likes to play? Bing Bong, Bing Bong…
His rocket makes you yell, “Hooray!” Bing Bong, Bing Bong Who’s the best in every way… and wants to sing this song to say, “Bing Bong, Bing Bong!”
Time to BTFD in Q stock
It's days like today that present wonderful buying opportunities. All of you naysayers have no faith in S&M and team. Buy the f**king dip everybody!!! You won't regret it tomorrow when the market bouces back from this short term panic.
Folks, don't worry about the stock price.
I'm sure Jana will persuade senior management and the Board to do another round of buybacks and reduce cost even further, by suggesting more deep layoffs. Some of you might not survive as an employee, but hey, we appreciate your sacrifices to allow... — read more
820 : Snapdragon or Crapdragon? Hows it doin?
Lots of hopes from 820
US companies like Queercom played with fire in China. And now they are about to get burned... Bigtime...
Looks like that the likes of Qualcomm, Broadcom, Marvel, Intel, etc,etc, have been playing in China's market and to win over concessions, they've been setting up factories, R&D, manufacturing there, so that the locals have gained knowledge. And looks... — read more
Man, if the stock keeps this low or goes any further, Jana's going to want to push cost cutting as a means of "unlocking more shareholder value"
...so those layoff rumors might not be so far off afterall... It's not entirely under our control... Yes, there's a sort of dysfunctional aspect to it. But at the same time, there's also the markets themselves with Greece and with the apparent bear... — read more
Ouch. Queercom below $64/share....Do I hear $62/share?
Jana must be shitting in their pants.

Don't worry about Greece tanking Q stock. Worry more about China's economic decline...
China's stock market just posted a 20+% decline just in the past week. Not good for us, which depends more than 51% of our business specifically in Asia. If the pullback continues, it could really dampen smartphone sales over there. And unlike people... — read more
Let's all use the Crapdragon moniker to outdo the WhyWait ad campaign!!!
Let's all start using the Crapdragon term regularly at work. For $0 spend, we can perhaps outgun the WhyWait ad campaign!!!
With all that's going on in Greece...
I'm feeling kinda randy and might head over to black's beach for some Greek action!! How do y'all's think the Q stock will hold up in the morning? Will we all be getting it from some big black sausages on black's beach??
It is going to be a fine day tomorrow!
