Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

@hw This is correct, but the accuracy can be changed.
Turn off location services and the phone relies on triangulation. Still somewhat accurate, but not pinpoint

Try using the GPS-enabled map on your phone, or in your car.

Most cars can link to the phone and display the map on the dashboard.

If you drive an older vehicle, then see if you can get your phone to describe in audio how to get to the office.

To get home, you can either get a new set of directions or set up a new route.

I use Google Maps but there are many other apps which can help with this.

@bj There's quite a difference between an opinion and well known facts. It is a well known fact that most humans, in general, will put in minimal effort when at all possible. You'd have a better time convincing someone the sky is green.

It's just math.

As the company gets smaller, the effort of each individual is more noticeable.

Considering the additional spin offs and other asset sales that are coming, plus the amount of outsourcing which is right from the Cadence playbook, Intel is likely on a path to 40k headcount, and virtually every single one of them will be under performance monitoring.

It has been decades since the company was that small, so none of the current workers know what that is like. Andy Grove was Andy Grove because he led a relatively small workforce and so could mostly know what they were all doing.

That is what is coming, and it will over time weed out all those who are not dedicated to the task. As the finances improve, those who perform well in that environment should be nicely rewarded, but they will face much more competition for their job.

The company maintained excess capacity since the late 1990s, and that resulted in less compensation for most people, as the company found it increasingly difficult to pay for all that excess. LBT and the Board are now taking it in the other direction.

People who think the past few decades are the norm are in for a series of shocks, and likely to be walked in the process.

LBT impacting his old ideology to this company

This is all forgetful. In the good old days a decade or more ago management lacked AI tracking tools and didn’t have time to manually observe. Instead they went over your tasks with you and observed your progress, usually at a weekly 1:1. And it worked!

If your company leans on common attrition to meet headcount goals then you will feel it. Be strong :)

@a2 "I have an opinion, and if you don't agree with it, then the'res something wrong with YOU."

Seems the RTO Troll is unsure how to continue the troll.

Your question should be: how can I go on quiet quitting for as along as possible before the doors get boarded up?

Managers will be given more objective data on your performance.
How many hours you were at the keyboard, how many hours in the office, etc etc.
May or may not translate to output or impact it is what it is. Kinds like how many comments you gave on a doc reviews shows your contribution.
AI will look at all this data eventually anyway and help your manager in your assessment to you.
So get ready to be monitored as part of this.

LBT said he was lonely and wants to see you in person.

It's more simple then you are giving credence to. Several things will happen. Non-loyal people and those with capricious nature will leave resulting in reduced OPEX and losing problem children. Most adults(using the term loosely) require supervision to perform their responsibilities to the minimum standard. If anyone is offended by that last statement then you should probably do some self reflection.
