I know we are told 1000000 times a day how "BOOMING" the economy is, stock market all time highs, etc, etc. But folks, the stock market is ALWAYS at an all time high long after the real economy tanks. Every single time it's been that way. And if you... — read more 

It's like my birthday and Christmas rolled into one every Friday after work. I really shouldn't be THIS happy to be out of here every single week considering how much I used to enjoy working at Qualcomm. Heck, I even looked forward to Mondays. Oh... — read more

Just did a test down of the 850, what a piece of c-ap. Very poor density on ASIC and the Windows perf blows. What a joke, fire the ASIC team.

Qc has billions. It can buy other stock instead of self and later sold for profit.

Anyone have an impression of ServiceNow? Stock just ATH 200 today up over 100% in the last year and they are hiring.

How is the progress towards the 1Bil?

Looks like we dodged a major bullet with Broadcom. I just read that CA Technologies, which they did manage to acquire, is getting ready to lay off 8,000 people! That's two thirds of their employees. I don't think we would have fared any better if the... — read more

Qualcomm has no quality. Only character less, and untalented people work for this sh--ty company.

If you plan to find a job in SD with your current salary good luck!! No one in SD will pay that much so prepare to make changes.

I think it is all done.

What has this guy done? Zip nada nothing! How long has he been CEO 5-6 years?

Keep expecting to read some new info on possible layoffs but so far I've been out of luck. How come there is absolutely no talk about possible dates and departments? Has Qualcomm really become that good at keeping any future layoffs hidden from us... — read more
