Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

ARM or x86, the virtuous cycle guarantees the one with the largest volume will win, always has! Missing the smartphone was the tipping point!

More ACTs a certainty

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Chromebooks books was one segment where ARM and x86 started with a level playing field. New platform, so both had equal chance to succeed if good enough. ARM badly lost. Showed again ARM can't move beyond low power uses, whatever they claim to be in theory.

Jan 2016 -- BK said "no job cuts foreseen"

Apr 19 2016 -- Q1 results published, plan for a 12,000 reduction in force announced

Ape 25 2016 -- Intel starts to harshly perp walk employees out the door

Conditions change quickly, and sadly one of the few areas Intel has improved speed of execution is terminating employees. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst as the time to prepare and adjust has been cut!

yes, ACT is NOT over. BK said ACT 2016 will be over mid-2017 and we're barely into the year so expect more. I doubt they'll be over mid-2017 but that's opinion only, I don't "know" a thing.

@sfj - Check the other posts. Additional layoffs are already happening in some German sites. Posters have expressed concern that this might actually be a "stealth" preamble to a second ACT (let's call it ACT2017) and not part of the first ACT (ACT2016) since the $$$ and conditions of the packages are different than what was given last year. I guess we'll get some idea how bad the financial situation is after Q4 results are announced later this month.
