When the CTO uses the phrase "curb engineering inflation", you know you're screwed. - Avis employé Principal Engineer Broadcom

Senior management doesn't care about employees. And with Avago buying us, it will be even worse. For a CTO that is suppose to represent the collective engineering mindset, it's a huge discouragement when in all hands meetings, he repeatedly says we need to review our engineering staff and ensure we "curb engineering inflation. Come on, we're all engineers and not stupid. just say what you mean. You think U.S. employees are paid too much, and you want to reduce our compensation package and shift as much work overseas as possible. Calling this "curbing engineering inflation" is just insulting.
