I work as an engineering tech in F11x. None of the management will tell us anything about layoffs or shutdown. They keep us in the dark for for unknown reasons. I have seen many early retirements. Is retirement just another word for layoff? Does... — read more 

Sorry PSO really BK'd it and BK continued to BK it with IoT and memory, so sad what could have been with this company https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone

BK's sub-IR performance = monumental failure. Time to step down buddy!

I got VSPs by BK, today on my desk I got at least 6" stack of payer that cost Intel more than 50 bucks to send. All of it junk .. legal crap for heat care, SERMA, Cobra... Even after this I still can't get a straight answer on when my money is... — read more

Just when I thought Aicha had lucked out with the Apple win she grabs defeat from the jaws of victory. As someone who doesn't work in France I can confirm that she has just torpedoed her own boat with Sophia closure.

Heard today it was announced that all sites in France TL, NC will be closed. Can any of our French colleagues confirm our deny this....

Thought I had to fart, but then I felt a tinge of liquid so I stopped the job!

Just because you are CEO doesnt qualify you to lead Intel. just like most long form.managers at Intel you inherited this title and so far have failed miserably. Bk, do the right thing for your current employees (whats left of them) and your current... — read more

Your generous ISP package came in right before Brexit. I'm buying cheap stocks like crazy. Got a new nice paying job, so I'm selling my overvalued house in Bethany at a huge profit.

Did the site get closed? What were the ISP, VSP and retirement numbers? Any info?

Excuse me as an outsider. What does BK stand for? and why do posters refer to this? All I can find is google references to a fast food company. I was under the impression that Intel was only in the computer business??
