QC rejected BCOM offer? Wow so bad for SM

Just received the email about rejecting the offer from BCOM, so stupid to reject the offer, that was the only way to avoid more lawsuits and issues with Mav. This is for sure the end of this company. Leave while you can as the exodus already started.

Broadcom Qualcomm NXP how much overlap? How many layoffs?

I have heard Broadcom is much leaner. Also hear they layoff if your division is not profitable. Some duplication of jobs and layoff cannot be avoided. Do they they just lay off the lower half performers or is it a whole group at a time?
