Why eliminate shift engineers?

Found out our module is eliminating CWW engineering positions in this cut and expecting Sh1 engineers to cover the pager 24/7 going forward. How does anyone in management think that is a good idea? Paying G7+ salaries to dispo pages that are 99%... — read more 

Ten months later, and still no luck finding a job

The job market is completely saturated. I’m starting to think it’s time to step out of my comfort zone and send out resumes more broadly. I’m even willing to take the pay cut. The longer any of us wait, the harder it will get. I don’t see indications... — read more 

Intel H1B Hires in 2024

Anyone has info on how many H1B folks were hired in 2024? Locations? Positions? I have a feeling we are still hiring them even tho a massive culling is being prepared, and rest assured, most of H1Bs will be saved.

Quantumtel

If they’d just stop fooling around with AI and show the world how far ahead of everyone else IntelLabs is on quantum, the stock would be $200.

Taking over as the CEO of Intel, a historically dominant but recently challenged tech company, requires a bold, decisive, and highly focused strategy. Intel has struggled with manufacturing delays, loss of market leadership in semiconductors, and... — read more 

Invest in Intel stock?

I’m sorry. This is a company that can’t even conduct a layoff without a delay. No thank you!

Where is Pat?

He promised that Intel will bounce back in 2025. He has spent money like drunken sailor- no CEO have ever spent like him. Today another 20-30K people will be under state welfare because of him. He should compensate every Intel laid off employee by... — read more 

Do we have a clearer idea of the numbers?

It seems to me that it’s more than 20%, as many others have pointed out. Not that it makes much difference, especially to those who will end up jobless. But still, it would be good to know.

Leadership shakup

Is this really going to make a difference? Does anybody actually believe so?

Intel 7 is our latest HVM node, while TSMC is....

Intel 7 is our latest HVM node, while TSMC is entering HVM on 2nm. Intel Fabs are at least 1.5 generations behind. Imagine if a customer comes to us and asks us to make a chip and we give a chip that is 3.5 times bigger in dimensions than what... — read more 

Where's Waldo?

That's a classic question! Waldo is usually hidden within highly detailed and often chaotic illustrations. He's not in a specific location in the real world; he's a fictional character created by the board of directors!!

I wonder what it's like

To be a manager who just went through several brutal rounds of layoffs in the drivers seat and now you discover your name is on the list. Please seek professional psychiatric help. You're gonna need it.

The cuts won’t make much difference

Except for the people who’ll lose their jobs and be pushed into an already saturated tech job market. Even for those who survive this round, more cuts are likely just around the corner. Unless, of course, there’s some brilliant, strategic plan in... — read more

IFS 20% is Far From Enough to Align to TSMC Metrics

If anyone thinks 20% is going to get IFS anywhere in-line with TSMC staffing metrics, they are truly TMG'ers... sticking their head in the sand, and using delusional metrics. The reality is that IFS needs to cut HC closer to 40%-50% to get in line... — read more
