Just to clear the record.
Ross has several sites.
Corporate headquarters and several engineering teams
now occupy all 5 floors of the office complex you mention,
there are a few remaining small tenents,
but I assume this is lease restricted, rather than lack of interest
to populate the entire building.
There is a secondary site which houses the advanced processor design
team.
There is a third design facility in Isreal.
There is a small software facility in Colorado.
There is a 33,000 sq ft test and manufacturing facility. This
facility has some of the top of the line test and diagnostic
equipment, including several testers, FIB machines, and two
IDS machines, including the state of the art model.
There was a seperate facility for RMCC, but this has consolidated
into the main campus site.
Hemant, you make Ross out to sound like it is a fly by night company.
Ross has been around since 1988, and has been growing at a substantial
rate. Even with the recent layoffs, I believe the workforce is
still larger than a year ago.
While there are challenges ahead, I expect there will be exciting products in the future both in chips and in systems.
Thanks,
