There's a lot of speculation but very little concrete info.

Any proof to your claims?
No they aren’t :(
@yos is incorrect. people are receiving packages
There are no packages. You are getting fired and asked to leave
@fqm
By end of tomorrow? Is Tuesday this week the last work day for FE compressed WW? If so, that might mean that notifications are going out on people's "Fridays". Let them finish the week before swinging the axe?
When I was a punk kid who deserved to get fired, my boss let me finish loading the last truck of the night before firing me. Maybe that's what's happening here?
Expect the typical Intel cluster flop.
- Managers will be acting weird & quiet, and pretend they know less than they do.
- Lots of whispering huddles in the cubes.
- People glued to their screens, refreshing their email & circuit over & over waiting for any info.
- Calculators & the payout .xls sheet on a lot of screens - people running the numbers on their potential pkg for the 87th time.
- Procrastinators rushing last minute resume updates & checking job boards for the left over scraps.
- Rumors will be rampant.
- Fab technicians have recently started spending more time on the factory floor to try and cover for the 6 hour breaks they've taken for years.
- Engineers acting like they're more interested in the projects they've been working on forever and maybe even looking for additional projects.
- DEI hires mentally preparing their fake outrage post for LinkedIn, Facebook etc., and maybe looking for lawyer recommendations.
- Woke media will standing by to interview "outraged" DEI hires. The media hates large corporations (even though they work for one but that's different), and likes kicking them when they're down.
So aside from techs visiting the floor more, not much different than a typical week at Intel.
I’ve heard most notifications by end of tomorrow, but some throughout the week.
Not enough people being fired that is what we can expect
Layoff notice for you
