据路透社报道：高通将裁员应对成本压力 CEO备忘录未披露人数 通知11月起发出
据路透社10月20日报道，美国芯片公司高通（Qualcomm）将进行一轮以绩效为导向的裁员。路透社查阅的高通首席执行官 Cristiano Amon 于10月19日（周一）发给员工的备忘录称，此次调整在年度绩效考核之后进行，旨在建立更强的绩效文化、处理持续未达预期的情形；受影响员工的通知将从11月起发出。
备忘录没有披露裁员人数，路透社表示未能确定此次裁员的规模。高通没有立即回应路透社的置评请求。高通全球员工总数约为52,000人（截至去年9月）。
报道说，备忘录列出的裁员考量因素包括业务优先级、组织需求与员工的技能专长。背景方面，消费电子需求低迷、存储芯片涨价压制终端需求；高通今年股价涨幅有限，其7月底给出的业绩指引低于预期，来自 Apple 的收入加速下滑，公司寄望数据中心等非手机业务在2027财年抵补。
高通总部位于加州 San Diego，是全球主要的手机处理器与移动通信芯片供应商。裁员的具体规模与财务影响，有待公司后续说明与财报确认。
Reuters: Qualcomm to Cut Jobs Under Cost Pressure; CEO Memo Gives No Numbers, Notices From November
Reuters reported on October 20 that U.S. chipmaker Qualcomm will carry out a performance-focused round of layoffs. An employee memo from Chief Executive Cristiano Amon dated Monday, October 19, reviewed by Reuters, said the move follows annual performance reviews and is aimed at building a stronger performance culture and addressing persistent underperformance; notifications to affected employees will begin in November.
The memo did not disclose how many jobs will be cut, and Reuters said it could not determine the scale of the reductions. Qualcomm did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The company employs about 52,000 people worldwide as of last September.
The memo listed business priorities, organizational needs and employee skill sets among the factors considered, the report said. Qualcomm faces soft consumer electronics demand and memory-chip price increases weighing on device demand; its shares have risen only modestly this year, its late-July guidance fell short of expectations, and revenue from Apple is declining faster, with the company counting on non-handset businesses such as data centers to offset that by fiscal 2027.
Qualcomm is headquartered in San Diego, California, and is a leading global supplier of smartphone processors and mobile communications chips. The scale and financial impact of the cuts await further company statements and earnings reports.
