Heard that department managers, area managers, and shift group leaders were to only perform skill assessments for the techs to submit to upper management and HR to make an assessment AND THAT upper management and HR would ne the ones deciding who to lay off. Is this true? If not, who selects the technicians to layoff?

Intel is in such a chaos now: managers to be laid off have successfully secured their position and will not be touched. They show up to use the quota to cut other people. This layoff is intended for managers, they should go home. But the opposite is happening.
You're next ! Bankrupt and Loving It !
If you’re in a large team and not at the bottom of the list among your peers, you should survive the 20% reduction. Good luck!
@a5 I agree with you although Im an engineer, some engineers are really lazy and doing nothing valuable.....
Need to lay off department managers, area managers, and shift group leaders.
This layoff for managers, so they can go home

If u have been working hard and stepping up aquiring new skills, doing most to help the company succeed then u should be good w confidence. If u have been coasting then Good luck.
Yes
@OP Does it really matter who's making the decision? None of it's fair. None of it is in your favor. Prepare for the worst. Hope for the best.
@a2 engineers are the laziest group of workers lol. Why do you think they’re forcing RTO? Because you guys su-k at your jobs.
@a2... a$$ hole! karma will come 4 you!
Ultimately, it is up to your business unit to decide how they want to do it. I’ve been told from my boss that they were asked to grade us on what I think are subjective skills/metrics and submit that to HR and HR will decide who to cut based on those metrics.
I’m sure you all know how ramped up all this got this week and how rushed this feels… Intel hasn’t even filed any Warn Act notices besides the one for the 100~ engineers they laid off in Folsom.
