I imagine, from what's indicated on the market, that they don't which is why TSMC is investing in schools of the area to get students trained to work with them.
Investing in schools is great, love that, but it will take years if not decades to make an impact on the workforce
Well, my understanding is it's also university, regardless, it seems like a plan of build it and people will come. a bit problematic when a competitor can offer similar pay with less abuse.
Probably plan on intel on continuing to implode over the next few years and there not being a competitor lol
As much as I dislike how Intel works sometimes, this market does not need fewer competitors.
I agree but that doesn’t change the fact that intel is collapsing. I don’t think we need to artificially prop up failing companies either, if they are needed and they fail then nationalize their assets and let a closely monitored government entity run the fabs
Intel's factories are literally 2 hours away from the TSMC facility. There are several other chip makers near to Intel, and staff tends to shift around between these, and I believe that will continue. I do not know what TSMC is doing for a talent pool, though I also heard they are not staffing the Arizona facility with high end engineering. That will stay in Taiwan, and this plant will be focused on production.
