If maternity leave is likely needed next year, how to best handle during these layoff periods?

Although Intel is going from failure to failure, I know that the leadership is not interested in our opinion that many things need to be changed in this company. On the other hand, I am no longer sure whether it is even possible to stop the... — read more 

So far no crying and moaning LinkedIn posts on layoffs. Half of my team out for Christmas and New year holidays.No doomsday announcement from ELT. Seems like the worse is over

I do not agree with those who think that the fear of cuts increases productivity. Moreover, I think the opposite is happening. However, it seems that the goal of our leadership is exactly that - to constantly keep us in fear of being a target?

Can’t claim credit but well put. At a high level, it was Intel’s dominance. Because of the monopoly status it had acquired through the real and historic leaders in the company (Moore, Grove...) , the subsequent 'leadership' pipeline did not... — read more 

Don't be so excited at the prospect of being laid off or leaving. I know Intel is far from ideal but at this point in time, there is no such thing as "greener grass." The tech sector is in disarray. Everybody is laying off and some are outright... — read more

Asking for Germany… If someone is accepted for CPM but the separation package offered is not good enough. Can one decide not to leave?

So considering annual rewards time changed this 1) is it possible our talent will leave more? 2) have another push maybe q3 2023?

Would not be surprised if this was happening over recent years, and new CFO stopped this after he took over.. The SEC would have a field day if this is true... 🤔

Some of us felt that Intel’s best hope to escape x86 prison involved successfully expanding into technologically-adjacent markets — either the GPU market or the mobile processor market. It seems that we’ve done multiple “try/fail/bail” loops in the... — read more 

Dave Zisner on reorg: Prune portfolio in low ROI areas, internal foundry model (two P&Ls) will increase efficiency (in some cases Intel had 20% equipment uptime vs. best-in-class 80%) Seriously where is the accountability? Seriously has the Board... — read more 

Is the problem that it's too little too late and way behind the curve?

Missed volunteering for CPM, is there still a chance to let boss know I’m ok with a layoff during the time they decide on the involuntary layoffs - or would that backfire?

There are plenty of those at Intel and getting rid of every single one of them would not affect work or results at all. Keep those who care about their jobs and who got where they are through hard work and knowledge. Doing it the other way around... — read more 

Been wondering if there's been layoffs in Oregon these past couple of weeks. I work for MSO and it's been quiet so far, leaders trying to cut expenses all over the place and accepting volunteers to go.

Does anyone know what criteria that is or was used for CPM?

Intel has managed quite successfully to keep layoffs out of the media eye. Small layoffs that last for an extended period of time are happening under the radar. Despite that, I don't believe that the company's reputation has ever been this bad.

Leadership has failed in so many things here.

For US employees only, you have from Dec 5 to Dec 16(11:59pm PST) to apply for voluntary separation and to be considered.

The main problem of this company is that people are bloody incompetent and lazy. Simple 15 minute stuff take bloody month and you end up without automation. I hate seeing it. When I came to US I saw how wrong it is in all ways. About 50% of staff... — read more

Heads up. All sites visited and what anyone types on company laptops are logged.

TL used to compare himself with Nvidia CEO, claiming to be equally talented. What a loser, squandered great opportunity for Intel in IOT segment. Complete lack of vision, poor execution, destroyed acquisitions.
