I've learned so much here

I think the source of all the frustration is that people take some things very personally and still expect everything they do to be noticed, valued and adequately rewarded. On the other hand, my only expectation from day one here was to learn as... — read more 

Chimera

A chimera is a monster combining parts from different animals, or an organism containing multiple different sets of DNA. I am calling Intel's new Alder Lake processor a chimera because it is a hybrid containing two different kinds of CPU cores with... — read more 

The future is uncertain

I discussed this a bit with some close colleagues. Are there many here who think that the future of this company depends on competitors failing? I have a mixed opinion about that.

Retirement scam??

Just out of curiousity, has anyone else been screwed out of their retirement by Intel? :(

The drawbacks of not being a manager's favorite?

I don’t want to make deliberate efforts to become my manager’s favorite. I think that sometimes it is more important to maintain my integrity, although I think that is why I am at disadvantage here when it comes to promotion, but also other things... — read more

Intel is for people who don’t expect much

The situation used to be totally different, but Intel is now a company for those who are not overly ambitious and those who can remain indifferent to all the bad moves of leadership. Everyone else is looking for an opportunity with the... — read more 

Collective action of the employees

Why are Intel employees collectively not pushing back against the policy of coming in to the office, just like Amazon and Apple employees did? If we were to do that, things would change in our favor. What are your thoughts on this?

Predictions on Pat?

If the coming 12 months are like the past 12 months? If the stock continues to decline another 20%, back under $40? Will his Kool-Aid turn sour? Will he surrender and retire to his golden years?

How bad will earnings be?

Just compare today's EPS with the one from a year ago and you'll have a good indicator of how things are going.

There are two types of managers

Who just talk, talk and talk -> These are d-mb get promotions but do not get any work done. These folks slow down, create a mess, and enjoy the ride of delaying projects... DG2 is a great example of it. Managers who get the work done and keep... — read more 

Are people really leaving?

I see a lot of internal movement. People being able to negotiate out of cycles and bidding wars internally I f you are the right candidate.....

Totally Lost my confidence

Pat promoted Raja to EVP. All of the bozos in old SSG (the new software group,) got promoted. They don’t even understand software. All of them. Instead of fixing the weak, toxic top people, Pat has been promoting them. What a shame. I don’t have... — read more

Folks: I worked in JF3 (2nd floor) from 2004 to 2016 (device driver and Linux security engineer). There were periods where I would be very sleepy, especially in the afternoons, in my cubicle, which on the portion of the JF3 2nd floor, not too far... — read more

Forget about work-life balance

Ever since I came here, I no longer have any work-life balance and working here leaves me very little time for family. I thought that in time I would get used to it and manage to organize myself more efficiently, but it wasn't like that. The only... — read more 

I don't know what all of you are still doing there

I left Intel six months ago for a sizable bump in base compensation and fewer responsibilities - not to mention the drastic reduction in the amount of stress. If you are any good at what you do, you can find a much better job at a much better company... — read more

Great place to start a career

This is in my opinion a good place to start a career. However, it seems that this is not the place for those who expect that they will be able to significantly grow their career here. Quick poll for everyone: How has your career progressed here?

Always jet-setting and begging is Pat

Washington, Germany, Japan, India and now Taiwan, always with hat in hand an on his knees as a man of faith how appropriate. Doesn’t sound like a voice of confidence in his internal development roadmap if he is begging in Taiwan... — read more 

How is Pat doing?

Vote up if you like what he is doing Vote down if you think he’s made things worse

Who are the star employees?

This is the only company I have worked at so far where a star employee can be someone who does not deliver results and does not meet or exceed targets. At one time, the star employees here were extremely talented employees, standout performers. In... — read more
