Clemmer did the same thing with AGERE and LSI in the early 2000's. Starboard sees a huge return on share price, sells of course. Good call on Starboard's part brining Clemmers to the table.
There is going to be be some major reorgs and fat cutting. I don't think the Triquint-RFMD Lackeys will survive overall. Arrangements like five supervisors for the the same group of people will not bode well.
There will be massive duplication of services. Redundant groups will be addressed.
Watch the management! True test of character now, watch what your manager shares with you. More than likely only concerned about themselves. And rightfully so.
This is an IP grab for Skyworks. Maybe some niche designers will be absorbed. Personally, I feel it couldn't happen to a more deserving management group!
Just in time for Christmas too!
