While the rest of us, the cattle class are “encouraged “ to come onsite. I personally don’t mind going to the office. But there’s a big disconnect between executive management and the work force even for matters like RTO. Leading by example was lost... — read more 

Think about it. Layoffs have gotten rid of a good number of best employees over the past few years. This has caused a continued brain drain as others have been voluntarily leaving at a steady pace. They have been replaced by cheaper workforce - here... — read more 

Are they (management) really in any position to actually deny anyone’s CPM application? I know it’s an “application”… but c’mon, the finances are hanging by a thread. I cannot imagine anyone being told: “yeah, we know you wanna leave, but you know... — read more 

TD people huge clean up is coming

At one point last year I realized that I felt like a hostage of Intel. I’ve been so afraid of losing my job that I completely lost perspective on my career, what’s good for me, what's reasonable pay, and on the reality of the situation. I decided to... — read more 

Wouldn't they rather we make informed choices on this?

Are these id--ts taking any college level decision making courses?

Are new hires that were hired in past few weeks safe from this round of layoffs. I am assuming managers know that they’re team will need to make cuts if necessary and wouldn’t waste time hiring new employees knowing they have to lay them off very... — read more 

When people tell me the job market su-ks, I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Widen your search, people, and you'll realize that there are plenty of available jobs. They might not be in the industry you expected, but they are there. And they pay... — read more

I swear, it's their goal to instill fear in all of us with the constant threat of layoffs that never truly stops. Do you remember a time when you didn't fear for your job? I honestly don't. They want us to be afraid so they can control us more... — read more 

What is the situation in Folsom? Does anybody know how many will be affected?

I hope I’ll be laid off. Otherwise I’m leaving on my own. It’s been obvious for a while that Intel is circling the drain, and I personally think it’s beyond saving. From the perspective of an employee, our compensation in most cases is too low, there... — read more 

Numbers don’t make sense. With 15% headcount reduction (ignoring the severance cost) I calculate about $3 billion in savings from HC reduction. Still $7 billion left. I estimate austerity will have to come back. 25% reduction in salary on average... — read more 

Does anyone know when they will start laying off employees and when will the layoffs end for this cut

Which is more power-savvy, ARM or x86? Easy answer: ARM. Unsurprisingly Intel, the company responsible for designing most of the world's x86 chips, thinks it's... — read more 

Is there any chance that Sam Altman will save Intel by using some of their fab capacity to make "AI" chips, or by buying pieces of Intel? Outlandish or possible? Inquiring minds want to know.

Intel (INTC 3.12%) stumbled through manufacturing issues in the past, and only now is it starting to right the ship. The company's entire desktop CPU lineup is still made on its Intel 7 manufacturing process, which is based on the same 10nm node that... — read more 

If I'm being honest, I'm tired of the toxicity, unprofessionalism, and having to play office politics day in, day out. I've been wanting to quit for over a year but all the job offers I managed to land came with lower pay. While I couldn't get myself... — read more

Title. I don't want to leave this job, but I feel like I'm being forced out. I am 90% sure I will be ISP'd if I don't take enhanced retirement, which is a significantly smaller package. The truth is, I work maybe 20 hours a week. Most people my age... — read more 

demonstrates that HR, mid mgmt, and leadership are not competent at their jobs.

Intel's underwhelming second-quarter 2024 financial results have prompted the company to announce plans to cut 15% of its workforce, approximately 15,000 employees, aiming to save US$10 billion by 2025. This decisive move contrasts sharply with the... — read more 

Intel leaders making the world look rosy in powerpoint is acceptable when you're trying to motivate your employees but when you do it externally it is considered ILLEGAL.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYdgIQNOFfA Pat is in fact burning INTC to the ground!!

It appears that NEX will be receiving a budget cut of 26%, and there will be some announcements coming next week. Anyone heard which projects are impacted?

How much do you think is enough for somebody in their mid-20s to have in their savings and not have to worry about layoffs? Or let me rephrase that, how much is enough not to have to worry about finding a new job within two to three months after... — read more 

got interviewed at TSMC AZ for manufacturing role. Higher work hours, low pay and they hate the word "No" for an answer. Basically a sweatshop. Makes me love working at intel

I guess their mobile GPU tech is OK. But it seems like their innovation stalled in the late 90s/early 2000's. Perhaps some Atom cores for low power? I think the canary in the mine shaft was Jim Keller giving up. He could help save AMD but not a... — read more 

Does anybody at Intel feel like he or she has job security? If you do, can you please share why? I'm yet to talk to one person who isn't worried not just about being laid off but being fired for whatever reason. This is all outside of top management... — read more
