Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

Unofficial numbers are out.

3758 ISP

4946 VSP+ ERP+ folks who did not accept relocation/colocation and ended their employment ( basically another type of VSP)

Adsitional Approx 630 people have been let go due to site closures in non US countries and smaller offices in US, these people have either been involuntary or voluntary ending employment with Intel by end of July.

Another 350 are currently notified to find jobs in other teams or be laid off as early as July end, some are given slightly more time.

12000 will not be hit by July, however plan is to get to this number mid of 2017, after a strict focal process that gets rid of the bottom 5-10% (the accurate percentage will be decided by early next year depending on many factors such as company growth, profits and world economy. Going forward there will be a mandatory 3-5% ISP rate and 2-3% new hires per year.

Best thing for all of us to do is resign, let them know why, and find another job. Otherwise, the sh-- will continue.

By the time they reach 12k next year they will add an additional 10k to that number for 2018.

Doesn't look right, as Intel closed more than 40 small sites worldwide and the number due to site closure should be in few thousands. Just in Pune India 2 site closures impact would be around 300 heads.

Sounds about right as to the numbers.

Now what are the prospects of any growth this year with 10nm slip, global market softening and nothing in phones (no the fruit modem doesn't count as it is TSMC that and Apple that make money on it).

22/14nm factories will all be under loaded, the 10nm factory full but no real output.

Nope, it will be regret time for those that didn't take VSP and just plain ugly time for everyone still at intel.

Advice get out before the titanic slips under !!

"Going forward there will be a mandatory 3-5% ISP rate and 2-3% new hires per year." Assuming OP has a valid source, this is the dreaded forced bell curve again, and in a scary Focal climate where they redefine 'successful/safe' bell curve at will as they need to adjust the algorithm to match headcount goals. Plus we see a clear-cut "out with with the old employees" strategy--stagnant is the word all the MCM'ers used in their QGSs about those malingering Successfuls. Per other posts, you can bell-curve and Focal to your heart's content, but until you find something people really want to buy, all you do is cull the herd to produce exceptional people doing exquisite sh-- with no marketability. Drones and bracelets, anyone?
