Housing market is due for a correction, prices are unsustainable when work is moving to other States/countries. A friend of mine who is a QCT senior engineer is scouting for a home in ATX as a result of this layoff. He is Mr. SD. QCT is hiring in TX, and opening a new design center. I believe many layoffs will come from SD, and hiring will occur in lower cost areas (such as India, ATX).
