CEO at Intel
Bobby sent the following email to Intel employees earlier today.
Dear Intelicans,
It is with a heavy heart that I come to you today to announce layoffs for our beloved Intel Company. Unfortunately, due to a mutant infestation that infiltrated our offices, we have had to let 15% of our workforce go. That said, I am taking responsibility for this and will not pass the blame to anyone else.
It has been labeled the 'mutant', and it has been causing chaos around the world.
As you may have heard, a strange new species has been discovered in the wild. It has been labeled the 'mutant', and it has been causing chaos around the world. This same mutant has made its way into our office and caused massive destruction, causing us to lay off 15% of our workforce. While it is not a decision that I take lightly, it was one I had to make to protect our organization and its employees.
I understand that this transition may be difficult for some, and I extend my sincerest apologies for any hardships this may cause. Please know that we are committed to helping those affected by this decision transition to new opportunities.
Best,
Bobby Swanigan
