Huawei’s biggest problem named
According to information published by the reputable publication DigiTimes, personnel leakage is the biggest problem and danger for Huawei and Hisilicon today.
Huawei can be ruined by the employees themselves
Whether Huawei can change its strategy and survive amid increased US sanctions will depend heavily on its ability to retain talent in the R&D division.
Today, the most important challenge for the company is to strengthen the technology leadership and capabilities of the R&D division, while the drain on staff is increasing.
Truly talented employees have become a scarce strategic resource as semiconductor players in China, the United States and Taiwan actively poach people. Sources say Huawei and Hisilicon were forced to suspend research and development projects for new chips due to a series of US trade sanctions, and also sent their engineers on long unpaid holidays. However, many of them quit.
The frame leak is expected to continue. As a result, Huawei’s many years of efforts to expand its R&D talent base may ultimately fail. The source noted that this could be the most fatal for the Chinese company.
Huawei founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei previously stated that the company’s R&D department has 90,000 employees , far more than most Western technology companies.
