I’m currently interviewing for Intel as a MEng , any advices .
Is it actually coming?
All this talk of layoffs, delays, down sizing etc, but has anybody actually heard anything concrete about a similar layoff as 2015 / 16 or any pending job cuts? Its all just speculation at the minute??
Dominating managers
Some managers only know how to force their will on their employees. If you look different even more so. They probably never heard of a thing called collaboration.
Contract employees and normal employees
Anyone know what’s up? The whole “contract employee vs. normal employee” conversation. Overhiring? Understaffing? Contract employees joining normal employee’s groups to take their jobs?

How much longer until activist investors get on the board?
Will depend on the stock price. If it goes below $30, there will be enormous pressure on the board to fire Pat. Pat will have no one to blame but himself. Under his tenure, the stock has dropped over 40% already. His strategy is foolhardy.
