Stop at 75K or further reduction?

It’s not like any of this will benefit us. Layoffs will keep coming, and who knows how this will play out for Intel overall. I’m not stopping my job search, and the moment I find something even remotely acceptable, I’m pulling the plug here.

MSFT or GooGle or TSMC or ??

This is a death blow to the Intel GPU+AI efforts and should not be allowed by the regulators. It is clear that Intel needs the downstream, low-cost GPU market segment to have a portfolio of AI chips based on chiplets, where most defective ones end up... — read more

The recent collaboration between Nvidia and Intel is a complex strategic maneuver with significant implications for Intel's ambitions in AI and GPUs. It can be seen as both a smart move to leverage its core strength (x86) and a potential risk to its... — read more 

I’m just so over it. I just want to do my godda-n job and not have to wonder every day what’s coming next.

The key differences between Nvidia's recent collaboration with Intel and the Itanium partnership between Intel and HP lie in the nature of the partnership, the strategic goals, and the market context. Itanium (Intel & HP) Aimed at a New... — read more

RTO kickstarted the gossip-mill. “So and so did/said/posted this!!” Did. Ot miss that at all.

Sitting here on the beach pondering my next move. Do I really want to rejoin the corporate grind? Nahhh... Toes in the sand, drink in my hand. Hope your post Intel journey goes well.

Dear @Mr. LBT, Please re-open voluntary retirement and severance with package options for your employees. Many of us have now changed our minds and would like the option to leave with a severance package. This will benefit both the company and... — read more

Sorry, but it's as simple as that.

So far, Intel has not implemented any AI system that can reduce HC. Is LBT going to lead the company in that direction ?

If Intel weren’t as massive as it is and didn’t have its long history propping it up, it would’ve been looking at Chapter 11 or even Chapter 7 a long time ago.

What’s the process for employees that are impacted this round?

Just shut it down at this time. Noone cares and each and everyone is looking for jobs. Most of us are envy of those who got CPMd and got a package and are now free from this he-l hole

Paid 15 billion in 2015. Inflation alone should be worth 25 billion now worth under 7 billion. What happened with alterra? All value getting wrecked

Not sure what’s happening in Ireland, a lot of people are going and have left. Not sure if there getting redundant package. I think most are leaving because of attrition. Any know what’s happening here

Long gone are the days when people dreamed of working at Intel. Now we can’t even attract mediocre employees, and the top talent is avoiding us in wide berths. I fear this kind of loss of reputation is irreparable and we’ll be feeling it for a long... — read more 

The building was empty today and parking lot was less than half full.

Happy that you get the big lump sum of money and given the opportunity to look for better pastures? Or you prefer to continue stay with the company and hope for the best?

Knowing what's coming, seeing the state of Intel, why are you still here? Do you think you're safe? Personally, I'm here because I haven't been able to land anything good so far, but I've been trying to leave for nearly a year. As soon as I do, I'll... — read more

Especially those who returned from remote will be targeted as a punishment for being remote all these years.

Did your org protect managers by turning them ICs, and their RnRs remain almost (or) the same? While good engineers doing the job are seeing the exit doors, there's still room to protect the friends

People start turning on each other, and work becomes a battlefield overnight. The saying “dog eat dog” has never fit Intel better than it does now.

Original: If LBT wants to execute to his vision of a slimmer Intel, with hyper focus on 3-4 areas (PC, Server, AI, IFS)... he's going to bring in his own guys he trusts to execute his goals. Let's be honest... he can't trust anyone in ELT today who... — read more
