Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

ACT was a huge mistake!

Repost (deserves a separate thread):

ACT was a huge mistake, it's execution was irresponsible. We cannot walk folks out and just chop them like that after many of them dedicating their life to Intel.

I personally know many who literally gave their life for Intel, with early mornings, late nights and even weekends for Intel.

And some even sidelined their own family's time for Intel! It is wrong the way we treated these folks through ACT. What is needed is a more sensible cut and more importantly cost control!

To date still no direction of cost control with many favored departments spending irresponsibly! I truly cannot understand why BK and gang still do not want to call for control on spending!

I did not know about the no-rehire policy until last years layoffs and I do not agree with them. If ISP was for IRs or maybe SL5 (stretching it) only then no rehire would make sense. But the subjective SL4 given to productive employees does not warrant a no-rehire stamp because there were no issues in performance. Dumb and mean Intel HR or whoever decided to bundle IR (performance) with stock levels (subjective value level for the next 5 years).

Divorces should all have a no-remarry policy.

Obviously, -bpy has his head in the clouds. The no rehire policy was written into the exit letter of all people who received ISP.

@JmndHQU-bpy. I am surprised this is the first time you've heard of the 'no rehire' policy. It's been all over the external media and covered heavily in this layoff forum as well.

How come they don't rehire ?

First time I hear such policy ... Not a neutral policy

I was similar to likely many others, worked my a$$ off for intel. Vacations can't remember out of the two decades how many years didn't use them all, sabbatical postponed twice to get projects done, weekends, holidays worked. Then I got a fat new manager who found it convenient to make me the "4" to make distribution, first time in 20 years.

I would have liked to have continued to work like a slave, but I guess I was real dead wood, had offers out of my years. So long Intel and as sad as it is, I won't be bailing water as the Titanic sinks, good luck with 10nm, 14nm yields, IoT, low power, commodity initiatives, 5G, modems and foundry they look like you are well on your way with the 12K laidoff to the cost structure you need, and you are so customer friendly I can see the customers fighting to get into the factories, LOL

I become freelancer instead of working as full time slave for dump managers.

Now well paid and enjoying my time .

"dedicating their life to Intel" -- that's mistake #1 right there. There was a time when that kind of loyalty was rewarded. That time is long gone. Currently the time is for Diversity and incwusion, transgender bathrooms, and transforming Intel into BK's Progressive utopia.
