I get it we are fat, get it we are slow, have to many levels and got too many people.
What’s the plan when we cut another 20% everywhere, will the remaining bozos, managers, PE, SPE, VPs all of a sudden wake up and know how to work more efficiently, faster or just be fewer headless chickens ?
What’s the plan or should I hope they cut me from this $hitshow?
@be if the only DEI you’ve seen is pro-veterans then you don’t work at Intel
@b3 Hiring vets (who at a minimum know how to work under a military command structure) is not DEI. It's common sense. Working as a technician in the fab is not that complicated. Sure, it has its moments. But most everything is procedural which vets are highly adept at dealing with. Besides, most of the issues with technicians aren't technical, they are behavioral. And that can be the case with anyone regardless of their background. And no, I'm not a vet myself. But I've worked with many.
@cc sounds like a push over. A cuck if you may. You've described communism shut up and do your job and don't ask a question
OP, why do you feel that they have to share anything with you? This is one of Intel's problems, everyone thinks they are part of the decision making process. Shut up, do your job, collect your pay check... if they want more from you they will ask. If everybody did this the company would run far better.
You understand for the past 20 years, everyone was hired specifically to not build factories and just repair old equipment until it breaks. People thought they were smart, but they were allowed to be promoted because they proved their ignorance in building new factories. Nobody knows how to build factories anymore. They have to retrain everyone or replace everyone with actual factory industry experts. Anything less is just a Bain Capital strategy to sell the company for scraps.
@ax The only DEI I’ve ever been forced to engage in at Intel is preference for military veterans. A lot of fab technicians came to Intel with only the experience of changing tires on Humvees for a few years. That is considered preferable to someone with an associate’s degree
@OP my DEI hiring goal is on track as directed in my OKR, what else do you want me to do? That was the strategy and I continue to execute to it.
It is indeed going to get worse and worst by end of year..
Intel. Strategy.
Antonyms.
Same clueless people. If they know what to do, why don’t they do it earlier or now?
Completely clueless. After the layoff and reorganization, it will get worse.
No silly. They cut the fat to make a company more desirable when they sell it.
Get rid of some PEs. Some are awesome others are just making $$$ contributing little. They should count as 2 HC given their salaries
Founders sound right haha
With many ICs gone who do you think is going to do any real work? There will continue to be an abundance of low performers, the unmotivated, constant vacation/medical leave folks and then our esteemed VPs, Managers, SPEs. Do the math.
LBT is just waiting for it to come down to 50K and then take it private after he sells anything that will sell like a garage sale
The plan is a fu--ing lie, LBT is juicing the stock price and trying to collect as much labor from people as possible before shuffling them out the door.
We're founders of a new Intel, our bones are being mixed into the foundation.
