- Intel is saying another 5,000 workers after more than 20,000 already stayed earlier this year
- Non -basic roles in California and Oregon are at greater risk
- The decrease in market domain is largely the fault
Intel plans to fire another 5,000 workers, mainly in California and Oregon, as part of their broader effort to reduce staff by approximately 20%, reduce costs and improve profitability.
The company has already made a series of layoffs that affect around 20,000 workers only this year, with the new Intel CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, citing the domain of the company X86 decreasing of the company, its weak presence in the GPU market and a disappointing performance of its foundry services.
The latest redundancies were confirmed by means of adjustment and notification notification of workers’ resentment (Warn), which are required for large -scale employment cuts.
Intel continues to fire technological workers
The majority of workers affected in the most recent reduction of the staff will be California (2,000) and Oregon (2,500), but several hundreds are also expected to lose their work in Arizona and Texas. Israel is also seeing employment cuts.
It is believed that non -basic departments, such as human resources, marketing and administrator, are at greater risk, and hardware equipment seems not mainly affected. Intel says he is working to become a thinner, faster and more efficient company.
Although technological dismissals remain common in 2025, since IA efficiency gains allow companies to produce more results with fewer people, Intel’s cuts are unusually deep. Great rationalization efforts are being made: “Many teams have eight or more layers, which creates unnecessary bureaucracy that slows us,” he wrote so in a memorandum of April staff.
With the new leader to the helm, the teams are also asked to reduce and eliminate any unnecessary meeting, keeping the attendees to a minimum, to ensure that more time spends in productive work. The workers are also expected to attend the office at least four days a week from September 2025.
Despite a seemingly endless spectrum of challenges, Intel’s most recent quarterly income remained year after year.
