Dear Intel Employee:

Beware of these key concurrent, contradictory, and questionable events in recent months at Intel and realize the sly strategy behind them and devious tactics implemented in fulfilling them:

 
1. Redeployment
2. Layoffs
3. Targeting for terminating through R&R
4. Hiring freeze
5. Aggressive hiring from colleges
6. Nationally and persistently claiming that Intel has a "severe shortage of skilled labor"

 
1. For every redeployed employee there must be an open position in Intel; otherwise the redeployment will turn into and is meant to be a torturous termination.
2. When there is a hiring freeze and Intel is hiring from colleges it means that older employees are being replaced with cheaper RCG's.
3. If Intel is constantly telling to its employees that "employees are our greatest asset", but is constantly and shamelessly plotting against them, Intel is flatly lying to its employees.
4. If Intel is laying off, obviously it means there is a surplus of employees.  But, if Intel is telling to media, American public and legislators that it has "sever shortage of skilled labor", Intel is flatly lying to masses of people and misleading our legislators to change the immigration law only to replace American employees with cheap foreign workers.
5. We all know that Intel has software development labs in Ireland, Israel, and China and presently hiring in those countries.  We also know that beyond its needs, Intel also has manufacturing plants in foreign countries.  But Intel is threatening uninformed legislators and President Clinton that if they do not pass the H-1B visa bill, Intel will transfer all of its software development and engineering jobs to other countries.  This UN-American act is nothing but bullying, cheating and lying to legislators and the President of United States.  H-1B visa bill will allow Intel and like minded corporations to import 515,000 foreign workers by year 2002, which will render older American workers out of work, lower the wages, and undermine the American standard of living.

 
• By forcing employees out by intimidating them through CAP.
• By offering a separation package and implicitly creating a fear of losing their jobs if the package is not accepted. This enticement is nothing but inducement of a forced resignation and Intel calls it attrition.
• By not allowing employees who are on Medical Leave of Absence (MLA) to return to work.
• By placing masses of employees in redeployment pools to find nonexistent jobs and then terminating them if they were unable to find a job at Intel.

We need to get united and take action and we have to show to the public the true face and intentions of Intel.
