Any word on what's going down?
It's awfully quiet these days - the calm before the storm. Are there any leaks at all? I need to know - who the hell has got to go.
Wonderful - QCOM stock has never been worse (since I joined).
What a mess. I hope my stock gets better once the company spits.
Question about PIPs:
Does your manager or HR have to tell you that you have been put on a PIP before it happens, or can they just assign you some humongous pile of sh*t to do, and then tell you when it's late that you failed your PIP?

Dear Qualcomm Employees that are holding onto your ESPP shares,

Hopefully, you people had long burned and churned your ESPP shares
Why on earn would you hold onto ESPP shares to get that long term capital gains tax treatment, when reality is that you are subjecting yourself to capital losses, especially when you have a boatload of RSUs/options that would more than compensate you... — read more

By law, expect termination in September
China is melting down, U.S. Tech companies going down. Another economic crisis around the corner.

Affair
Heard there are lots of affairs at Q. The bosses won't let their girlfriends go. Any idea???
When can PIPs be started?
anytime or only shortly after or during a review?
When do we get told to leave?
I remember hearing that mid-September was the time frame for those to be informed of their layoff. Is it exactly on the 15th of September or sometime 'around' mid-September. Also, if I hear nothing around the mid-September point should I assume I'm... — read more

Vendido bonuses?
Anyone know how much managers and directors got as bonuses if they could force long-term and older employees to quit so that QC wouldn't have to pay them severance plus WARN Act benefits?

World economy is more or less in stagnation for the past 15years
