QUOTE(kb2005 @ Oct 14 2006, 06:26 PM) Retrenchment and downsizing is uncertain due to world ecomony! Nobody expect Intel as the most stable company in Penang will retrench so many people this year! Since when has Intel ever been the most stable company?   You want stability then it's Agilent you're looking for. |

QUOTE(kb2005 @ Oct 14 2006, 11:31 PM) Intel was very stable before 2006. Starting 2006, due to the competition in CPU market, Intel started to retrenche their staffs. My fiend in IT got retrenched last week The troubles in Intel began around 2004 - actually way before that. Insiders could already see trouble in the horizon - just that we tried to act cool about it.  By the way, who said Agilent is stable ? Imagine this: 20k ppl hired worldwide in 2004-2006. Around 100 ppl coming in every 2 weeks in Malaysia. No company in the world can sustain that workforce. I mentioned Agilent as being 'stable' as in they are practically a monopoly in the test equipment field. It would take a catastrophic screw-up for them to have to layoff ppl - with Avago taking on the non-performing units. This post has been edited by cks2k2: Oct 14 2006, 11:51 PM |
