“As part of our broader strategy to become a more focused and efficient company, (the data center group) is aligning its organization to ensure it has the right roles and skills in place to position the business for long-term success,” Intel said in a written statement to The Oregonian on July 20. “We are committed to treating all impacted employees with respect and providing resources to support them through this transition.”
The report further noted that Intel claimed the cuts won’t affect its product commitments or roadmaps, and the company expects the restructuring will enable it to operate with greater simplicity and speed.
