https://www.thehrdigest.com/intel-layoffs-signal-a-new-era-as-ceo-lip-bu-tans-fightback-begins/
Layoffs again but will they finally get it right this time?
Over the last 10 years Intel has had layoffs every two years and most of the layoffs hit those lower than management. The new CEO has hinted at management being the target this time and it's probably long overdue. ELT, VPs and Management has steered... — read more
Pat should shut his mouth
"Intel’s Former CEO Pat Gelsinger Claims NVIDIA’s AI GPUs Are 10,000 Times More Expensive Than What Is Needed For AI Inferencing"
LBT vs Pat
Pat ki-led Intel. He is the most pathetic CEO Intel could ever had. Have you seen a CEO doing pushup in company meeting? Look at CP - a disastrous mo--n, to say very least. Look at sweater hero DS - he should have controlled Pat but he didn't. And... — read more

Lots of excitement around Intel right now
For the first time in a long while I'm seeing positive headlines regarding Intel. I wonder how long that's going to last...
so there's a certain manager...
In def met (or maybe integration now) who is uniquely toxic- genuinely monstrous. There's a constant stream of new engineers quitting his group, including foreign/H1B engineers. I know of at least 6. And his process is way behind schedule. Does... — read more
How long can uncle LB Tan survive at Intel ?
Three years for uncle Pat to archive 5N4Y lie (just one year short to see the truth). How many more years do you think uncle Tan can survive at Intel to archive the next xNzY lie 2.0 ?
LBT should take notes from Amazon

Manager does not show up in meetings and evades 1:1

Is WIN building or stagnating culture to win at Intel? good bad or indifferent
not trying to cause a battle. we all need to support each other....but can we be all when we draw boundaries? simply asking if we are trying hard enough to focus on uniting around out top jobs to succeed as a company. Ogres and Trolls your... — read more
So we are expecting more aggressive layoffs?
What’s the reason that Tan resigned from the board last year?
Lip Bu Tan needs to bring back Meritocracy and Accountability.
Let me pose this question... if Intel is failing so miserably at IFS and former TMG for years... how can anyone over there be considered successful or better in their performance review?!?! Is there anyone accountable over there?
Intel’s new CEO gets a $1 million salary plus $68 million in bonuses
https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/intels-new-ceo-gets-a-usd1-million-salary-plus-usd68-million-in-bonuses
If the strategy is to keep IDM and try to make it more efficient, the market will expect to see big cost reduction immediately.
I get that the various parts of the company won't get a very high valuation right now, and that reducing headcount and cutting projects and groups can put some lipstick on the pig, but those changes would have to come hard and fast, or the market... — read more
Pat is already sh!t talking LBT
https://x.com/drfrederickchen/status/1900798829991260502 lol! Pat - your strategy DID NOT WORK Time for someone else to give it a try. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out. And yes… you’re wayyyy out.

Lip Bu Tan Needs to Require 100% of OKRs to Contribute to Customer Satisfaction or Profitability
In changing Intel's culture, Lip Bu Tan should require 100% of all OKRs to be directly tied to three things. If it's not directly contributing to these three things, it's not an OKR or worth being an OKR. 1) Drive or Contribute to Profitability; 2)... — read more
Hi Middle Management
All Sr. PES, Managers first line and 2nd line, Project and Program Managers, HR, Learning departments - how you feeling right about now ?
No layoffs
There won’t be any layoffs as most of the good talents already left and new CEO won’t risk loosing remaining.
LBT has a question for you
What did you get done this week?
Will free fruit and beverages come back under Tan man?
What will happen to quality of RA cafe food? Will employees be able to fill their bags with free bananas like before?
Lip-Bu has mostly been a VC, and has a Finance background, so like Bob Swan but with Semiconductor experience.
ELT has long understood the need to reduce the complexity of the company, but no one was volunteering to get their group or projects reduced. Enter a CEO with a VC background, picked by a Board which is full of Finance types. Board and ELT... — read more

Why Lip Bu Tan leading hierarchy of CEO ???
In the Yeary's letter it was mentioned - Michelle will continue to serve as CEO of Intel Products and Dave will return to his full-time role as CFO, both reporting to Lip-Bu. Does this mean there will be new CEO for Intel Foundry ??
For upcoming layoffs, how will the severance packages be?
Will they be as good as the last time?
Culture and Predictions
The only way to fix the culture is for massive layoffs. Everyone who has been at Intel a long time has been conditioned to be "anti-teamwork", that is the culture. This is why the bureaucracies exist, because at one point, an idea won, and now the... — read more
