Yeah. You were right. More corporate BS. We were shuffled around a bit but nothing major. I heard Sales is looking at taking a major hit but nothing specific.

Personally, I think we are in for more corporate speak BS. Nothing more. Nothing less. It'd be great if we had some leadership here again. In Chris Hann speak...what a bunch of cretinous morons.

I've heard a few rumors about what happens tomorrow after free Friday breakfast. A few are minor and I'm not too worried, but one or two involve some pretty big cuts and changes.

What's everyone else hearing?

From Intel board a bit ago:

@Flsyy3H-1rgb

The other thing I've heard about WRS is that their flagship product, and foundation, VXWorks will become open source soon, and the other tools they've developed will basically be given away to Intel customers. Not much of a revenue stream for WRS anymore. I would think commissions and bonuses will dry up.

There were a couple of conversations I was in on in Santa Clara this past week. Some WRS employees and managers have taken to Twitter and Facebook to run down Intel? Not very smart.

BIG Intel Layoffs COMING !

Just talked to a friend at Intel that has been there 18 years and he said big layoffs are coming at Intel.

He's in management...so I don't doubt it.

He said some of the people impacted will be notified before focal, he thinks these will be ISP and other will be notified after focal, said these will be VSP or put into the redeployment pool.
