集成電路供應(yīng)商AMD

裁員日期：2011年11月

裁員人數(shù)：1400人

裁員前總員工人數(shù)：11,100人

目前總員工人數(shù)：約10,000人

股價(jià)：上漲14%

????去年11月，AMD公司宣布裁員約1400人，占總員工人數(shù)的10%。作為僅次于英特爾（Intel）的芯片制造商，AMD希望“重組計(jì)劃”可幫助公司每年節(jié)約1.18億美元運(yùn)營(yíng)開(kāi)支，并使公司可以在低能耗芯片、云計(jì)算和新興市場(chǎng)等方面投入更多資源。

????AMD的重組計(jì)劃是否有助于其在新市場(chǎng)的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，我們將拭目以待。但這家位于加州桑尼維爾市的半導(dǎo)體公司，仍落后于競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手英特爾，而在手機(jī)領(lǐng)域，許多競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手都遙遙領(lǐng)先于AMD。最近一個(gè)季度，AMD宣布，因裁員導(dǎo)致的相關(guān)費(fèi)用支出為800萬(wàn)美元。

AMD

Dates: November 2011

Layoffs: 1,400

Layoffs: 11,100

Headcount now: About 10,000

Stock change: Up 14%

????Last November, AMD announced it would lay off about 1,400 employees, or 10% of its workforce. A distant second to chipmaker Intel, AMD hoped the "restructuring plan" would help it save about $118 million in operating costs in one year and allow the company to sink more resources into projects targeting lower power chips, the cloud and emerging markets.

????It's too early to tell whether AMD's restructuring will help it compete in new markets. But the Sunnyvale, Calif.-based semiconductor company is still well behind Intel -- and it's playing catch-up to a slew of competitors in the mobile space. In its most recent quarter, AMD reported charges of $8 million related to the layoffs.
