Intel employs around 5,000 people at its Leixlip plant.
U.S President Donald Trump has called for the resignation of Intel’s new chief executive, Lip-Bu Tan, calling him “highly conflicted” over his ties to Chinese firms.
Trump’s statement, posted on Truth Social, followed reports highlighting Tan’s investments in hundreds of Chinese tech and semiconductor companies - some allegedly linked to the Chinese military.
Shares in Intel dropped nearly 5% in premarket trading.
A leadership shakeup would come at a sensitive time for Intel, as the company undergoes a major strategic overhaul under Tan, including job cuts and a pause on several manufacturing projects.
