Anyone heard what this is all about? Hopefully no new logos or timesheet systems. It’s got to be something else? Not more faceless execs. There’s enough of them already.

Intel Israel workers fear layoffs
They have very good reason - Intel Israel workers fear layoffs
Lots of politics, corruption, and shady dealings. They show up every day to milk the cow and collect a paycheck at the end of the month.

Layoffs End of Year
Will there be more layoffs in Homelending? It’s getting slow? Will there be more layoffs next week?
New PMP system ?
I was told that the new PMP system uses five ratings, from A to E, with E being the lowest.
Rumor has it that receiving two consecutive E ratings could lead to contract termination.
I was also told that in teams of five or more people, each rating must be assigned, regardless of whether all team members performed well.
I know this is supposedly about controlled and forced attrition aimed at eliminating so-called low performers, but it still shocks me.
In some cases, year-end ratings have apparently already been decided at the N+2 level. If that's true, then the game is rigged.
Your thoughts and comments will be valuable to everyone.

MetLife Rhode Island Rumors
Are folks from Smithfield really being transitioned to the Warwick MetLife site? Not sure if people here are just joking. And what groups have people heard would be going?
Are people being laid off in secret?
I know of two people who were let go in the last couple of weeks. Both received severance. This is the first time I've heard of people being let go with severance outside of regular layoffs. Is this something that happens often?
I think we can finally safely say it's done
Until the next round, of course. But the rest of this week should be safe.
Can this be true?
The reason you won't find a better paying job is because Intel makes agreements with the other Big Tech companies not to hire each other's employees.
And if true, how is it legal?
When will it start? Has it yet?
Has it started yet?
Is MTC closing?
There are rumors about MTC closing and everyone moving to RTC? Did anyone hear anything about this? Is it true?
