What Intel said in May
While Intel is yet to confirm or officially announce the pink slips, the Santa Clara-headquartered chipmaker made it known back in May that it intended to relieve more people from its staff to mitigate costs.
“Intel is working to accelerate its strategy while navigating a challenging macro-economic environment. We are focused on identifying cost reductions and efficiency gains through multiple initiatives, including some businesses and function-specific workforce reductions in areas across the company. These are difficult decisions, and we are committed to treating impacted employees with dignity and respect,” it noted in a statement then.
