AZFSM lost 0.5 billion last year, after the ACT, due to careless mistakes from techs and engineers. Even after a site wide quality taskforce, changes to the blueboom policies, and more lecturing from management, on quality, nothing has changed. Just yesterday, another communication was sent out saying we lost another 0.5 billion from human errors this year. When will the upper management realize that they cut too many people and that their culture of fear isn't working? People are probably so tired and stressed out of their mind that they can't think straight, which is the real cause of all this.

If human errors, this is certainly grounds for employees to get fired.
AZFSM is a toxic environment with more AM's, GL's, and bean counters and not enough worker bees working in the Fab. Welcome to BK's Intel where each site is ran by beaurcrats, not people with technical expertise.
That 0.5 Billion number did not come out of Intel's pocket, it's revenue that could have been generated from selling the dies from the wafers that were scrapped. I bet management spun it as if it did come out of Intel's pocket just like they spin and talk out their butts on every topic.
@hib- you are not whining, just stating facts. BK and his ilks continue to fumble, worker bees pay the price. The chickens one day will come home to roost.
I'm the one who posted this. I actually like my job itself. I just think the ACT wasn't well thought out or economically worth it.
@bdm People in China would do the same thing, but for 20% the cost, and they would not whine about it like OP.
And yes, if you hate your job so much but apparently are not willing to move somewhere else, then it is called „whining“.
What data do you have OP?
What makes you think people in China don't do the same thing? These errors aren't public knowledge. The person posting only knows about AZ because they work there. The real question would be if the human errors increased after the mass layoff and if the amount of money lost was more or less than the cost of keeping those people.
