Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

@15p Please wait your turn. There's a line-up to get picked. On my team, there's at least 5 of us that wants to get picked.

I am ready to go, just lay me off. I have hinted to my OM that I want to get picked.

I don't believe the Quitter Troll has a manager.

Definitely if all intel has to show is an nvidia chip sitting beside the cpu lmao.

@dw short timer, eh?

Why you all looking for packages? Stock up 80% YTD. If you're that bearish you should all be long far otm Intel puts full margin. Liquidate all your other holdings, mortgage the house, cause you're all insiders and clearly realize something the market doesn't see.

Only id--ts still want to work here. Who care about more layoffs?

Right now they're looking at people simply over how many times they've badged in since RTO. But because the database only has one parameter (badge swipes), it does not consider approved time off. I know several people who were on sabbatical over the last 6 weeks being scrutinized by HR for showing 0% on their badge swipes. Another was on vacation for three weeks (only vacation taken this year) and management is being asked to explain why her badge-in average is so low over 6 weeks. It's happening, folks....they're looking for who they're going to trim down to LBT's 75K by end-of-year.

Jim Evers announced in a meeting yesterday that they're actively outsourcing as much as possible.

Sending more jobs overseas? After having received government funding? I bet that the administration will have something to say about that.

Take the package if you're offered one. Things are bad and it's going to get worse. 10 years of dedication and loyalty for nothing...... I'm out.

Current round of CPMs ends late Nov/early Dec. Outsourcing ramp up starts Q1 2026.

@dm Naga basically said layoffs are over, but he didn't say we're not ramping up outsourcing. They're just changing the euphemisms for canning people which is shady as fu-k.

Jim Evers announced in a meeting yesterday that they're actively outsourcing as much as possible. Dude spent an hour excitedly talking about how much money Intel is going to save by gutting BBs and moving to contractors.

A work around for layoffs is badge flipping. I bet they hired people to assist with that effort.

Not true. Fake news. Naga said layoffs are over

It's always amazing people are still surprised. Just look at the financials and debt and market share loss.

The only thing that has delayed layoffs in 2025 are the state forced handouts you got.

Those sound like a lot of cash, but they really aren't given you situation. It's just smoke and mirrors with Intel and US gov. collusion.

Fact remains... Find no customers then no 14A is made and it winds down. Tick Tock... It's what like 12 months left now.

@cm Safer!

@ce does this mean worker in asia is safe and worker in US is at risk?

One can't bank on the packages being offered today will be the same packages offered tomorrow. If there's no money in the bank, there's no money for a package.

We all understand the LBT needs to cut costs, and one way is to continue cutting headcount and moving jobs out of the USA. The next step might be to slim down the packages.

We know that our team lead is looking into getting onto the "cut list", as it's getting really bad. It's just depressing. Working hard and being depressed doesn't make things healthy; it barely pays the bills.

@af oic.. i thought the package is going to be lesser after that. got it

@ac oh.. i thought he meant the package might be lesser or amended

OR AZ NM Ire Is VN Malay and who knows where way of the plants in China and India are .... F Intc blues can get to 1k per plant and then only hire greenie contractors based on prima donna toolelset suppliers wishes ... still ain't gonna make a primo chipset like AMD Apple and NVidia cause ASML hasn't booted up the litho layers yet ! Fn18a14a backside wrap around ditto !

2026 target 50k employees

@OP thanks for the honesty. Yep, layoffs to continue anyone thinking differently has their head in the sand. Wake up call to get another job.

I am tired of f-c king Intel layoffs. Just stop working so nobody can lay you off. Be free like me or the birds.

But Naga said it’s over!

The only reason Intel still exists is as welfare $ for Haifa.

what you meant by HR formulas ?

Mathematical equations having many inputs but a single Boolean output value: eliminate employee = true or false.

Eliminations are through layoffs or firings. The many inputs probably include characteristics like your historical performance, pay grade, and possibly (at least these days - cynicism and sarcasm intended) things like gender, s-xual orientation, political affiliation, religion, heritage, skin color, physical attractiveness, citizenship, loyalty, secret society membership, s-xual perversions, and blackmail susceptibility / ability. Taken together, when fed into the equation, these characteristics will produce either a "get rid of them" or "keep them" answer.

Like you manage (or should manage) your credit score, if you want to keep your job, you should consider enhancing desirable outward-facing (publicly visible or knowable) characteristics and minimizing undesirable characteristics so that your resulting HR socioeconomic score is positive and not negative. Knowing how to adjust these values is half of the battle. The other half is managing them.

Good luck!

@a4 bro's on the list

The beatings will continue until morale improves applies here.

what you meant by HR formulas ?

$5 Bucks is nothing that’s how far intel has fallen
