The stock is up nearly 12% since the start of this year, suggesting that while Intel\u2019s future is far from certain, investors have confidence in Tan.<\/p>\n<p>Intel said the staff reduction is \u201cdesigned to create a faster-moving, flatter and more agile organization.\u201d The company reported having 108,900 employees as of the end of 2024 across Intel and its subsidiaries, which include autonomous driving company Mobileye. The company said it plans to end 2025 with 75,000 employees in its core Intel division \u2014 not including subsidiaries \u2014 as a result of \u201cworkforce reductions and attrition. Intel filed a  layoff notice in Oregon earlier this month indicating plans to cut nearly 2,400 workers.<\/p>\n<p>The company also said it\u2019s scrapping projects in Germany and Poland as part of its cost cutting measures and will slow down construction on its Ohio chip factories \u201cto ensure spending is aligned with market demand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Intel has had a series of bruising years that saw the one-time industry leader fall behind rivals after it failed to predict two major tech transformations \u2014 mobile devices and artificial intelligence&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aol.com\/intel-cuts-15-staff-pushes-215505488.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Intel cuts 15% of its staff as it pushes to make a comeback https:\/\/www.aol.com\/intel-cuts-15-staff-pushes-215505488.html Publish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":224678,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/en\/aol_cnn_business_articles_764\/4496553df4134b9228e3d514411c7edd","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-224677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224677"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=224677"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224677\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":224679,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224677\/revisions\/224679"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/224678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=224677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=224677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=224677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
