Tough questions for apr 27 all hands

Be prepared to ask really really tough questions to SM. The real question is...why is he still here when 1500 people let go? When will he and CA step down and take responsibility for destroying livelihoods of people ....

Waste of time, come on guys, do you really think Mollenkopf will take or answer any "real" questions? Of course not. There might be a couple of softballs if submitted beforehand but nothing hard submitted anonymously or beforehand will be answered. We all know NXP is dead. When will leadership admit it so we can get on with strategizing the next thing? With new management of course because current one has to GO! And I mean get kicked out with a footprint on their a--!!!

Nobody will ask these questions in person, unless he opens the anonymous Q&A which i doubt.

We have force all meeting times to questions. We don't want to hear him. We heard a lot.

Did you guys notice the all hands is only for one hour. It's usually for 1.5 hours. He will waste the time with usual BS about what direction company is heading in the long term. He will have 15 mins for 2-3 questions and thats it. All BS tactics.

A year of free trunk lunches for anyone who asks SM if he plans to dress up in blackface for the NXP Sinterklass celebration like NXP does every year.

4G leadership, close CSR, pivot to adjacent markets which will bring back high growth. Sorry just got out of my time machine from 2015. Did I miss anything?

Folks, he aint gonna take any tough Qs.

Whats the purpose of the AHM ? To answer some softball Qs and create impression of stability and 'lets work hard to dig out from this temporary setback'.

'NXP will close real soon now, trust me'

'5G leadership'

'Need to focus and not let AAPL and the litany of legal problems distract us'

'Great company, strong fundamentals, need to work out our temporary issues'

You‘re not gonna ask these questions anyway, so you‘re just little kids playing some silly game of „How are we going to insult the teacher?“

Keeping it simple and let him blabber;

  • Short term goal for next 3 months.

( Also, what goals he has on his performance from BOD. This will reveal the quality of the BOD. Is he on any performance watch, of what ever you guys call it.)

  • What other improvements he has made other than axing 1500 in NA region to meet 1.5 bil goal.

  • Given the mess, why he thinks he should still continue as CEO ?

  • What he done to fix the nepotism in last 6 months ?

  • What are the major issues facing the company today ?

  • Is the company well balanced from top to bottom in terms of staffing and skill set ?

  • What are the week areas he thinks company needs to work on in next 6 weeks time frame.

Note - He wont have any long term goals, even if there is it will be a BS. All these questions should be like the last minute ones not a question he should come prepped with a standard BS answer.

Way to go.

Where the Mind is Without Fear and the Head is Held High.

It is time they become accountable. Greed and ego is the virtue of the doomed.

Force ahead and forge ahead.

Let's not ask useless questions like future of 5g ...rffe etc. Let's ask real questions to Steve

  1. When did he last use the private jet? And is he ashamed of using it when people are being let go

  2. Is his compensation tied to company performance

  3. Will he return the $60M he got in 2015

  4. Will he take zero pay till stock goes to 82

  5. Is sanjay jha better to run the company today

Post more questions on this thread here so that we are all prepared for the 27th
