Today one more VP left QCT, the reason: lack of leadership. Silicon Valley welcomes another VP from Qualcomm. Very bad for the company.

Wonder what role directors in india play. They hardly have any deep teh or almost out of touch with any r&d. Time kick out the belly fat whcib is burning up cash.

I hope all events affecting QC open the eyes of our management and we start seeing changes in our organization! There is too much FAT useless people warming chairs all over QCT.
