It seems that Intel It does not have enough with the around 20,000 workers who have already fired this year, and has decided to do without 5,000 more employees To improve its profitability and reduce costs, which would get to get rid of this year of 20% of the company’s total workforce, according to Techradar.
The bulk of the dismissals of this new wave will be absorbed by the United States. Specifically, the states of California and Oregon, where they will lose their 2,000 and 2,500 people respectively. There will also be some hundreds of layoffs, around 500, in the offices and facilities of the company in Arizona and Texas, as well as in its Israel plants.
Everything indicates that the positions that run the most risk of being eliminated are those that are not considered crucial for the future of the company: human resources, marketing and administration. It is unlikely that teams that work directly with the hardware will be affected.
The reason used for these outputs remains the same as in the previous cases: the fall in sales of its products and the decrease in their domain position in the X86 chips sector, as well as its weak face -to -face in the GPUS market. Also that the performance of its chips manufacturing services is lower than expected.
These last dismissals are already confirmed by official Warn template settings (Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification), which are mandatory for US companies that will make large -scale template cuts.
In addition to the dismissals, Intel employees are experiencing all kinds of changes in their work systems. Thus, since September 2025 they will have to go to Intel offices At least four days a week. They have also been asked to reduce and eliminate all the necessary meetings from their agenda, and that the minimum possible number of attendees come to these. The latter has decided to ensure that workers spend more time performing productive tasks.
