Will this stupid drama ever end?
I’m staying here until I find something else. But the months of chaos, lack of direction, and the generally bad vibe with no focus are all taking a toll on all of us. Just collecting a paycheck might work for a couple of months, but more than that... — read more
$21.49
It's a sad day when we're excited about the stock reaching $21.49.
It is apparently Softbank
Not Musk but it is apparently Softbank making the move? They seem to be going after both Intel Products and Ampere at the same time.
All the VPs, directors and senior managers are still the same and yet you expect change?
There are entire groups in non core areas that need to go. Still rot of elderly DEI at the highest levels. People that built their kingdoms through fancy PowerPoint slides. When you try to pull these PowerPoints out on Elon he will laugh!! — read more
Chandler Arizona Wants BTO
Plenty of space for us to come back into the office why not mandate it now?
Intel is such a mess
No CEO, acquisition rumors, losing market share, product issues, employee morale at the lowest, constant layoffs, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. How was it allowed for once a great company to reach this point? Are those responsible ever... — read more
INTC share price at the end of 2025?
My guess 15 bucks
For all you BTO/RTO/DWO Bro's
Where exactly do you expect everyone to work? Hunger Games for a cube/bullpen/cafe table? Even if they wanted everyone to come back, it's not feasible. I doubt they would have enough attrition to account for the lack of space -folks are too spooked... — read more
Y’all cheering for Elon to take over and he’ll get ALL fired!! LOL
Y’all think Elon will do you good? Don’t be no fool: he’ll get rid of the fat and that means YOU! 50% or more cuts!! Y’all are crazy!!
One of the two interim co-CEOs will be getting the job
She will be the first woman CEO in intel history. You heard it here first
BTO guy is Elon guy is buyout guy is DZ
Mom and Dad have a problem. We still have too much headcount and even the ISP packages are far too generous. But if anonymous rumormongers can get people to attrit without packages the situation is better at least They’d love to do the blanket BTO... — read more
Intel offshore Head count- Layoff will save cost.
China 12000 India 13000 + Plus 18000 on H1B in USA. Intel total headcount 132K. That is 32% job reduction, that are not US citizens. Since we need to focus on local manufacturing and the foundry. Us above to hire US citizens or extremely high... — read more
“ On deck, Intel, competing in the low-bar competition”
Does the world really need an AMD, ARM, AND an Intel? Seems to me the strategic nature of Intel, and as articulated by The Pastor, is it’s ability to manufacture domestically. Well, so then why are so many discount... — read more

Mysterious Company
Apple? Qualcomm? Broadcom? Global Foundries? Elon Musk’s VC? DoD?
Intel on resume is bad?
Will having a dead company on your resume look bad?
Remember when Intel had to pay all engineers for colluding to suppress wages?
Pepperidge Farm Remembers.
Imagine Elon owning majority share
All the ELT bozos who ran the company into the groundwill be gone by noon on Day 1.
No more office to return
Intel will be acquired soon ...
Think about how Intel Leaders will be remembered….
We started with the historic significance of our founders …..The Intel Trinity of Noyce, Moore and Grove. And we end with the historic Leaders of Gelsinger, Zinsner, Kelleher and Pambianchi who ran Intel into the ground with horrible strategy, stupid... — read more
The WFH'r days are numbered

Intel had intentions to withdraw from Ireland.
I was just told that we are going to focus on US and Israeli Manufacturing, Ireland operations is going to be scaled back to 0 with a sale potential to another Semi. Anyone hear more in this?
Is the merger happening right now
Saw this tweet couple hrs ago Elon's jet is in Florida. Global Foundries jet is in Florida. Qualcomm's jet is in Florida. In case anyone was wondering what's going on with Intel... They are at Mar-a-Lago. Make America Great Again can only be true if... — read more
Sources Say Intel Is An Acquisition Target
All that said about two months ago, SemiAccurate was read an email about a company that was looking to buy Intel outright, not parts. This is not one of those companies thrown out by clickbait sites after Pat Gelsinger was fired, we have not seen any... — read more
Musk is buying Intel
Return to Office has won!
Buy will change nothing for us
It could easily make things worse. The new owner will likely accelerate layoffs, cut costs, and implement significant reorganization. At this point, I’m no longer concerned about Intel's future; I just want to keep my job until I find another one. As... — read more
Engineering is NOT EFFICIENT with people working from home
Engineering brain storming sessions needs to be done a team in a meeting room or in a development lab. NOT from a home office over Teams. FRUSTRATING, INEFFICIENT AND NOT PRODUCTIVE! EOM

Lets sum up the damage done by Pastor Pat
Jan 2021: Joins earnings call before becoming CEO. Says something stupid. Stock tanks. Feb 2021: On Day 1, calls Apple a lifestyle company. Incredible arrogance. Feb 2021: Says AMD in rear-view mirror, starts scare-mongering about... — read more
Rumors that Intel Foundry will go the GF way?
When the new CEO(s) come, they'll be asked for severe cost cutting. Which means shutting down all advanced node development/R&D and become the West Coast GF. Thoughts on this? I think it's a stupid idea, there's no value in another American Foundry... — read more

When will the first book come out "The Decline of the U.S. Tech Giant Intel"
When do you think the first books will come out on Amazon?
Steady updates of divestitures shows where some of the headcount reduction is happening.
As groups get updated targets they will do additional reductions or hiring, but I think most of the net loss will be through the disassembly of the Intel conglomerate. My guess is that the spin off of Intel Capital was a point of disagreement... — read more
Spin offs show where there was likely a difference in strategy between Pat and the Board.
Intel Capital in particular, as that was long described as a pipeline for M&A. If Mobileye is divested then that would be another case where Pat clearly wanted to retain the conglomeration. Each divestiture should unlock value, enabling Intel to... — read more
