Intel notified its marketing employees this week that it plans to outsource many of their jobs to the consulting firm Accenture as new CEO Lip-Bu Tan works to slash costs and improve the chipmaker’s operations.

Intel laid off 15,000 workers last year and is preparing for another round of cuts next month, OregonLive reports, citing an internal memo. Intel Foundry head Naga Chandrasekaran informed employees about the job cuts on Saturday.
