First let me say that the silence from executive management is deafening. Q is being attacked on all sides, the business is in jeopardy, good people are leaving, competition is like never before, and what is their action? To give select groups increase bumps (over other good people) to stem the tide of attrition (others can go as far as they are concerned). In the first that's not equitable, secondly people aren't leaving due to pay, they are leaving because THERE IS NO CONFIDENCE IN EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT! The only way forward now is to split the company and hire a real leader to run the new chip company. I for one would be in favor of bringing back Sanjay Jha.

Q will fail miserably with NXP. Remote locations are treated like crap and Q will infect NXP with bad politics.
..or, like the ATHEROS acquisition ( Biggest before NXP) that was very difficult to assimulate, QCOM may not have learned how to on-board other companies, may be several years to get everone onboard, or maybe NXP will try to take over QCOM as ATHEROS did in the San Francisco Bay Area... and Fabs are a money sink well if you don't know how to manage them.. which QCOM does not have a history of doing very well...
QCOM / NXP Merger will bring awesome synergies and gains to both companies.
I guess you'll find out what happens soon. Meanwhile my new modem is almost done:
NXP merger will be fumbled and effed up. Just watch these incompetent idiots make a mess of it.. That's if the deal closes
What Sanjay did to save Motorola as a CEO? This nostalgic, messianic wish list will not change the reality and he may be the wrong guy for the wrong moment. But he is an Indian like you, so I get your point.
