From the CNET article listed below: The spokesperson said just under 300 employees would be cut in California, where the company has its San Diego headquarters and several other offices. A "similar number" of international employees will also be laid off, the person said. At the end of September, Qualcomm had about 31,300 full-time, part-time and temporary employees, up about 300 from the year earlier, according to regulatory filings. The spokesperson declined to say how many full- or part-time employees would be cut.

I'm curious who Mr. Ben Fox Rubin's source was for this story. Either he knows someone at the top or its carefully packaged conjecture.
600 yesterday!
I do not think they are considering Atheros here, I think Atheros alone will have cuts bigger than this number. Let's wait and see, we'll know much more tomorrow
