You'd think Corrigan -- after 24 years at the helm -- could better deal with the chip industry's cyclicality. In October, LSI Logic said it would trim 11% of its workforce after a $282 million net quarterly loss. Three months earlier, it had projected a stronger second half. LSI says its DVD-recorder processors will drive growth. But for two years running, the company has made the Council of Institutional Investors' Focus List of 25 underperformers.
