Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

It has always been work harder, not smarter here. It's obvious to ground level engineers in manufacturing and design. The end result could be much better and the process to get there smoother. Engineers and scientists are treated like monkeys on typewriters. There is a lot of locked up underutilized talent and value. Both sides blame each other, when it is due to planning and mismanagement. There needs to be a major restructuring starting at the top and that can probably only happen by splitting up the company. The planners that keep saying we have a golden recipe for development and keep doing it the same way need to go. This industry is all about working smarter.

The real facts are most high tech big cap companies don't trust and want to use Intel lousy chips anymore and already design their own custom chips. Why Microsoft already design its own custom chips and boards now? Because it has learnt from Apple success and forsee Intel collapse soon. Intel technologies are falling further behind others like AMD, NDVIA, TSMC, Apple, Samsung. Who wants to rescue?

I love the uneducated AMD employees and former bitter Intel people in here crying the blues and wishing on chicken bones and falling stars on Intel to fail. Intel is much more likely to become a top 10 most valuable company in the world again vs. failing. Your tears make us smile.

Intel will reign supreme. AMD and Nvidia are more likely to crash way before Intel. Intel's CEO is the best out there. TSMC is already shaking in their boots.

I just can't facking wait until Intel's complete collapse in spectacular fashion !!!

@1snq+1qebBvgG, Nice cut and paste... Are you good with PowerPoint too?

@1hfq+1qebBvgG, I would say more like Sears than K-Mart. Sears once had it all they were the Amazon of mail order in their day plus had a huge retail presence with quality products but arrogantly let it wither away by missing market changes and new opportunities. K-Mart was always low end second rate. You heard it here first.

Haha now is like everyone knows what to do, so bottom line was BK that d-mb? Is the board any use or are they all id--ts?

@1wbv+1qebBvgG. I think the failure started when BK took over, hiring wrong people like MR, who was supposed to rescue the wireless business but instead destroyed it.

Here is why

Advanced node is more than about getting there first. Getting a real useful technology requires a full suite of validated IP Intel does t have that. As it doesn’t have the relationship with all the external IP companies, psst. TSMC does.

Having a real node requires a lot of customers and huge variety of products. Intel has NONE!! It only has a single customer, its captive CPU tile. The SoC and graphics tile has all been outsourced to TSMC because they are cheaper, faster to production design worthy and better yield and cost. Without a huge number of customers you can’t make back the money you invested. The leading foundry has a customers Apple, Nvidia AMD, Microsoft, Tesla, Qualcomm, MediaTek, Intel. Lots of customers and volume means more and faster learning.

Who the fu€k cars Intel gets the first high NA. They don’t have the volume nor diversity nor DNA to drive their usage.

Intel is finished, isn’t if but when. Their only chance is if US or China starts a war and Taiwan is destroyed, barring that Intel is irrelevant.

Pat with all his four in five and disrespect talk about TSMC, Nvidia and others is lunacy and dispair and painful to see, but so appropriate such a lunatic is leading Intel now

K-mart of Semiconductors. You heard it here first.

It has failed since refusing to make chips for Apple iPhones. Still survive the last 5 years cooking the same chips over and over again. Last hope for AI everywhere. TSMC may wait for it to build the new fabs without high tech skill workers before sending their engineers to take over.

Intel Israel and Intel Malaysia? Yeah, that's some real high IQ sh1t right there. Like mixing oil and water.

Poor English, "Intel has failed", that is what you meant to say.
They are continuously laying off people and selling off their businesses.
I've seen this several times over my 45 year career - It's over!

👍 nice
