To be accurate they are not truly "performance based" which is why they are eligible for rehire. Basically they are people who "the group can afford to get rid off without affecting the project much" .... look out for chip leads, design leads etc to get chopped. If these are good performers they will be moved to a different group may be in a different role. Basically good performers .... wrong place, wrong time ...

BTW any news on how 10nm is doing, Moore's Law is dead
@huc - I wouldn't bet on all ISP/VSP/ERP actions completed.
Phase 2 phase 2 phase 2!!!

I see a meeting on Thursday, should be interesting news, lots of us know the other shoe is going to fall soon. Things are looking pretty bad where we work, morale is terrible, no work is getting done as everyone is typing away on their phones getting their resumes out and linkedin in order.
My direct has a mandatory meeting on Tuesday which I'm sure involves more layoffs.
