Will it be shock and awe! I am surprised Intel can’t be transparent and honest like AMD, but again with Pat why is that a surprise, says it all doesn’t it!
AMD pre announce revenue shortfall
AMD announced revenue shortfall today but egoistic Pat can't announce revenue shortfall and like to surprise market on earnings day. Last quarter revenue shortfall was huge compared to guidance but still didn't bother to announce it. I am sure intel... — read more
Problem with quiet quitting
Quiet quitting will not help you maintain skills, which is essentially the most important thing. Pretending to work for a long time actually harms us more than it harms the company. Some of my colleagues are surprised that I still put in so much... — read more
Intel SG&A Spending Cuts
Got confirmation that the CFO Dave Z is instructing for 25% budget cuts across all SG&A spends, so there will be cuts to headcount. Any other orgs getting cuts?
What disappointed you the most?
Intel is nowhere near the company I thought it was when I applied for the job here. For me, this company is a disappointment in every sense of the word.
VSP?
Rumors of VSP. Anyone know anything ?
Immigration
How is intel providing immigration for roles like project manager / product owner, SW development, etc. I thought it had to be a skill lacking in the United States? Why has this not been reported to Immigration and Customs?

The Big One
Anybody else notice that all the executives seem to have disappeared into their holes? Intel hired 30,000 people and then everyone disappears. How long before they fire 30,000 people? My guess is right after the quiet period.

Tesla event vs Intel Innovation
Tesla wasted zero minutes on random discussions and random technology announcements and jumped right into the meat of the technology. Tesla presentation on Dojo chip and system was miles better than any chip presentation from intel. Intel... — read more
Is there a way to reduce favoritism and nepotism?
Nepotism and favoritism are more prominent here today than they have ever been. I am watching how these two things are rapidly destroying a company that used to be a very different work environment. But how to put an end to it? I wonder if there is... — read more
Quiet quitting
Intel is failing because all new hires are quiet quitting. Do you know anybody under 30 who's giving it their all at work? I certainly don't. They never work a minute longer than their official hours and heavens forbid they work on a weekend when... — read more

Intel is failing
I remember when we used to hire people just on their qualifications, without considering s-x or race. Now new hires and promotions are now based on s-x and race. I know so many senior grades now that don't even know what ohm's law is. Intel is... — read more
***A$$HO-E INTEL MANAGERS***

This is no longer a place that can attract the best
That is more than obvious. The question is, does Intel even still want to be that company which once tried to attract only the best and most talented people with a lots of ideas, graduates of top notch schools?

Intel is still trying to rely on old glory
That's sad. Golden days will never return. However, instead of thinking about the future, it is quite obvious that the leadership is still relying on the old glory of this company. The question is what's left of the old glory? I think there is... — read more

Intel innovations today what a joke?
There are no innovations from intel. Why wasting money? Just showcasing gimmicky demo from few developers based on intel silicon is innovations?
Crazy Pat allowed unfettered hiring over the last 1.5 years
Now as we face a terrible economy, we have the added burden of 25k employees hired during the pandemic. Now that the reality is dawning on him, he will be forced to cut at least 15-20k and possibly more over the next 2 quarters.

Finding a new position during layoffs
