- Intel dismisses 5,000 other workers after more than 20,000+ have already left earlier this year
- Non -essential roles in California and Oregon are most at risk
- The decline in market domination is largely to blame
Intel plans to dismiss 5,000 other workers, mainly in California and Oregon, as part of its wider efforts to reduce the workforce by around 20%, reducing costs and improving profitability.
The company has already made a series of layoffs affecting approximately 20,000 workers this year this year, with the new CEO of Intel, LIP-BU Tan, citing the decline in the company’s X86 market domination, its low presence on the GPU market and the disappointing performance of its foundry services.
The latest redundancies have been confirmed via adjustment and recycling of workers (Warn), which are necessary for large -scale job cuts.
Intel continues to dismiss technological workers
The majority of workers affected in the last reduction in the workforce will come from California (2,000) and Oregon (2,500), but several hundred should also lose their job in Arizona and Texas. Israel also notes job cuts.
It is believed that the non -essential departments, such as HR, marketing and the administrator, are the most at risk, the material teams that do not mainly appear. Intel says it works to become a leaner, faster and more efficient business.
Although technological layoffs remain common in 2025, as AI efficiency gains allow companies to produce more production with fewer people, Intel cuts are unusually deep. Huge rationalization efforts are underway: “Many teams have eight or more strata, which creates an unnecessary bureaucracy that slows us down,” wrote Tan in a memo of April staff.
With the new leader at the helm, the teams are also invited to reduce and remove all unnecessary meetings, to keep the participants at least, in order to ensure that more time is devoted to productive work. Workers will also have to attend the office at least four days a week from September 2025.
Despite an apparently endless fan of challenges, the most recent quarterly incomes in Intel have remained stable from one year to the next.
