去年營運遇上亂流的華碩,雖在董事長施崇棠一聲令下全力轉型,但經過1年時間,營運並未好轉,被施崇棠力邀回華碩當救火隊的現任副董事長兼策略長徐世昌,決定重手整頓不賺錢事業,第一步先改組獲利不佳的電競事業。
從8月下旬開始,華碩啟動新一波組織重整,原電信客戶負責人暨全球副總裁林宗樑,轉任商用電腦事業群,負責電競ROG品牌的全球行銷總監尤彥博留職停薪。也有近百名員工收到選擇內部轉職或者優離的信函,新一波裁員消息甚囂塵上。
本刊調查,去年喊出要華碩人換腦袋的董事長施崇棠,將改革重任交給執行長沈振來操刀,但1年下來,華碩並未駛出逆風,營運日漸險峻,除了新成立的電競事業不敵微星等競業,全力衝刺的智慧型手機又遭華為、OPPO、小米等大陸品牌壓境,雙雙遇到挫折,營收獲利不如預期。
尤其是今年第2季,華碩交出的營運成績單,每股獲利1.8元,創下8年新低,眼見中美貿易戰打得火熱,一線手機大廠新機壓境,徐世昌要求沈振來下重手,對不賺錢的事業精簡人力。據了解,首波遭到精簡的是平板電腦,以及負責電信手機的團隊;另外營收占比1成到2成的電競事業群,也成為改組的目標。
「電競團隊超過700人,規模人數與微星相當,銷售表現卻沒與拉開距離。」華碩員工透露。「華碩雖是主機板龍頭,但電競筆電遇上的,還有惠普、戴爾與宏碁這些筆電大咖,產品優勢不再,又面臨強敵環伺,獲利不如預期下,自然被動刀。」

Last year, Asustek, who had encountered turbulent operations during the operation, was fully transformed by Chairman Shi Chongxi. However, after one year, the operation did not improve. He was invited by Shi Chongli to return to Asus as the current vice chairman and strategy director of the fire brigade. I decided to reorganize and not make money. The first step is to reorganize the e-sports business with poor profitability.

From the end of August, ASUS launched a new wave of organizational restructuring, the former telecommunications customer responsible person and global vice president Lin Zongliang, transferred to the business computer business group, responsible for the e-sports ROG brand global marketing director You Yanbo left a job. Nearly 100 employees have received letters to choose internal transfer or superior leave, and the news of a new wave of layoffs is rampant.

In this survey, Shi Chongxi, the chairman of the ASUS team who changed his head, was sent to the CEO Shen Zhenlai for the last year. However, after 1 year, ASUS has not gone out of the way, and the operation is becoming more and more dangerous, except for the newly established e-sports. The business lost to MSI and other competitions, and the smart phones that sprinted all the way were again under pressure from mainland brands such as Huawei, OPPO, and Xiaomi. Both suffered setbacks and the harvest was not as good as expected.

Especially in the second quarter of this year, Asustek’s operational transcripts, with a profit of 1.8 yuan per share, hit an eight-year low. Seeing that the Sino-US trade war has been fierce, the first-line mobile phone manufacturers have pressed the new machine, and Xu Shichang asked Shen Zhen to come down. , streamlining manpower for a business that does not make money. It is understood that the first wave of streamlined is the tablet computer, and the team responsible for telecommunications mobile phones; in addition, revenue accounted for 10% to 20% of the e-sports business group, has also become the goal of restructuring.

"The e-sports team has more than 700 people, and the number of people is equal to that of MSI. The sales performance has not been distanced." ASUS employees revealed. "ASUS is the leader of the motherboard, but the e-sports pen encounters, as well as HP, Dell and Acer. These products are no longer advantageous, and they face strong enemies. The profit is not as expected, the natural passive knife ."

I am surprised they are still in business. The mobile phone business must have killed them:

Price - they can't compete with Xiaomi
Innovation - can't compete with Samsung
Coolness - can't compete with Apple

And their laptops are stupid. Every model looks the same. Zenbook UX , UY , UZ kind of naming. What the fuck? There's no differentiation.

蘋果日報今天接獲爆料指出,華碩9月啟動兩波人力精簡,電競部門600人將砍掉一半,與先前估算減少數十人的說法不符。此外,華碩手機、筆電、PC等部門也在整併之列,甚至中國廠區包括上海、重慶、成都也有相關規劃。

In this regard, Asus said that the contents of the Apple Daily are "wrong reports."

ASUS previously responded to the rumors of layoffs on September 16th, said that it started the 2019 operation plan internally and decided to reduce the telecom industry mobile phone project, which will focus on the channel market and reduce the input of tablet resources simultaneously. It is estimated that dozens of people may be released. Manpower will be transferred to the staff by the personnel department.
