Hope this helps clean up dead woods and junks sitting all over management roles in GF.
Malta needs to learn from Dresden
Dresden Union leaders asks TC the hard questions… inflation and no raises… Bravo! Unionize! It’s the only way for them to listen. It was so sensitive, that TC answered the question off camera. Thought we answered questions truthfully and... — read more
I left GF for respect and mental peace
Wanted to share my story. I left GF recently after surviving multiple layoffs. I witnessed downfall of GF from Global payer with vision to be one of top foundries to third grade struggling local foundry with no vision, no roadmap and no edge. I... — read more
This is becoming a less and less innovative company
And there will likely be even less innovation in the future?
I've had enough of this place
It seems that GF has decided that they won't be replacing our colleagues who left. It's been almost a year already. Isn't that extremely frustrating? Those who make decisions here probably expect that the remaining people will accept additional... — read more

“Hey, no missiles”-TC
I wonder how many people had no idea what Tom meant when the distinguished gentleman from Burlington stood up for Q/A. Does Tom not know that they cut YellowJacket out from the video release last time? Also, did they keep the Dresden question in or... — read more
Question.
Am I supposed to clap along while watching the globalcast recording? Or is that reserved for live audience only?
Lowest Attrition Rate over Last 4 Years
It was like a joke...
Compare GF gross margin with rest of top ones
28% for GF vs >50% for the top foundries. Survival will be always at stake for any foundry like GF if there is no cutting edge tech to bring premium . Cost of doing business with mature technology has already proven to fail based on so many examples... — read more
CFO leaving
And finally the rabbit is out of the hole. Reeder is leaving. No wonder he got rid of all the stock back in February because he knew the earnings were going to drop the stock is going to fall. It was a fantastic gig making 16 odd million in five... — read more
How is Fab 9 doing?
How is Ken McAvey and the fab 9 team doing? Burlington was a pretty old facility, what’s the future of 200 mm?
May layoffs
There was some talk a few weeks ago about another round of cuts in May, has there been anything new about it since then? We are well into May and it would be good to know if I am stressing over something that is not going to happen. I can do without... — read more
Last nail in GF’s coffin
Peter B was brought to get GF Malta back on road and it did improve the longevity of GF which was going to close. With Peter departing and now new incompetent and failed person taking over his role, GF has clearly no future. I doubt it will survive... — read more

GF downsizing in Germany
https://anysilicon.com/globalfoundries-downsizing-germany/ This was posted in another thread. Just sharing.
The company doesn't want to hear the truth
I don't remember that they ever made even the smallest attempt to fix some of the things that people were brutally honest about in the surveys. What then is their purpose? Most of us think that GF doesn't want to hear the truth, so why waste... — read more
It's time to Unionize.
If you are a night shift worker not interested in this new "high performance culture" that upper management is pushing that makes the workers take over jobs and tasks created by the end of the year 2023 layoffs without any monetary compensation. If... — read more
GF: We need to lay off some people. Cost savings measures.
We’re sorry we can’t afford to pay you anymore. Also GF: Let’s buy remaining 800 acres in Luther Forest for $13M
Don't let high expectations lead you to disappointment
If I could give a piece of advice now that I'm leaving feeling like I just wasted a few years here, it would definitely be to not expect too much from GF. Those who expect a great career, maybe it's better to start sending resumes to other... — read more

Revenue projections are down, another week, another lawsuit to take the attention off poor financials .... Who is next on the lawsuit list?? :-)
The future of GF
I refuse to believe that the leadership will take GF to the rock bottom with their actions, although it seems as if the future of this company is exactly like that. Does anyone else believe that there is still a way to save GF and that things will... — read more

Another wasted Saturday
Another wasted Saturday in Malta AME while Engineering and Management enjoy their weekend. Instead here we are stuck in a continuous 12hr on 12 off loop of misery. It’s such a joke that even management and engineering isn’t required to be on site on... — read more
Good employees are leaving
There are some rumors about layoffs, however, many people are leaving on their own. Even those who may not have intended to leave any time soon, they are being forced to do so because they are increasingly overwhelmed. I really don't know how much... — read more
