I ran into a former coworker last week
He was laid off nearly a decade ago. He was shocked when I told him what the situation was like here right now. He still only had the best to say about Intel. He made sure to note that it was the best job he ever had and that he enjoyed every day of... — read more
Further delay in process lead?

I smell big changes the layoff kind
Behind on technology, most important business in decline under investing and what are the competitors doing, sales and business exploding. What is the CEO doing, asking for government money, what a recovery... — read more
How much have series of layoffs harmed Intel?
The layoff I got along with some fantastic people that worked here deeply disappointed me. In the end it all turned out well because I found a much better job very quickly. Now I think all those layoffs that Intel was giving had the worst effect on... — read more

The competitors are getting stronger?
Does it seem to you too? If I were to go to a competing company, there I would find all the best people who worked here and who left (and are still leaving). One of the worst things that could have happened to Intel is to let those people go, because... — read more
Too much stress
I know stress is unavoidable at any workplace for various reasons, but there is such a thing as too much stress and Intel is a master in that department. Stressing over layoffs, unrealistic goals, whether your manager will have a good or bad day and... — read more
Beware if Intel asks you to sign anything
Everyone remember what you signed when you started at Intel and BE VERY CAREFULLY it they ask you to sign anything new, consult with a lawyer before you sign. Remember at anytime they can layoff or find some technicality to FIRE YOU!
Nobody likes the smartest person in the room?
Here at Intel, as well as at the previous company I worked for, I noticed that people just don’t accept the “smartest people in the room” type of people. I used to think it was about big ego and people who want to feel superior, however, more and... — read more
Pat and Intel unleashed is embarrassing
What does everyone think of Pat? I finally watched him and was totally underwhelmed, does he talk like that internally too? I am sure that was rehearsed and massaged to craft an image and impression, is it me he looks like he is trying too hard... — read more
No problem! Don't worry! Intel would keep its share by using sneaky underhanded tactics (again)

Is Intel still getting rid of older employees?
I was laid off around three years ago. I won't lie, it took me nearly a year to find a job that didn't cut my pay in half compared to what I used to get here. Still, I did find it and I can say I'm doing well once again. I do wonder sometimes if... — read more

Not easily replaceable?
Those who are the most talented are leaving. It seems that Intel doesn't give great importance to it because they think that all are replaceable. They don’t see it as a loss for the company when a good employee leaves because the job is done... — read more
Notice some of the positives of people outside of your bubble
I sometimes notice that the groups that are not dominated by “sentiments that seem to live on this website” are more open minded and easier to work with. They are also easier to learn from since they are patient with questions. While hostile people... — read more
Intel is not as bad as everybody make it seem
We're certainly in a better position then we were in two or three years ago. For as long as layoffs are not happening on a monthly basis as they did back then, I'm satisfied. Good pay, decent benefits, and interesting work are enough to keep me... — read more
Staying here just because you are reluctant to relocate?
Someone made a good observation that Intel benefits a lot from the fact that some people have their reasons for not being able to move to a new area. I had long intended to leave but I am still here because my family is resistant to the move. I... — read more

You know what's the saddest thing?
Intel could again be the great company and the industry leader it once was. The only thing that's between us and that is the lack of good leadership. Not just the CEO, but the entire ELT. If we could get the right people in power this place would... — read more

We should get iCDG back
Given 5G/6G future biz opportunities , selling our modem division is a very bad decision. We spend billons to develop technology ans sold it for peanuts. Bad decision from our mgmt
Name one thing
You have to be realistic, there is no ideal company. I changed a few companies before I came to Intel and I was missing something in each. In one the atmosphere was great, but the pay was a real disappointment. In another I had good health insurance... — read more
No layoffs yet - impressive
It's almost two months since PG started and nothing has been cut yet. It's so great that everyone gets to keep their jobs while transforming the company back to a leadership position. Impressive!
How far have intel fallen, only will fall further
Pat’s great return to IDM 2.0 and beats his chest about 20 billion investment, must be a real man with a fab. Oops he has awoken the giant who is REALLY going to spend a HUNDRED BILLION. Pat likely can’t even get his first EUV till 2024, LOL — read more

Getting rid of top talent
Intel is not even trying to keep its top talent. Actually, they seem happy when somebody gives their notice when they find a new job. I'm yet to hear of them offering to match the new pay or some other benefits to keep them. All they see is a big... — read more
For whom is Intel still a good company?
Some here are defending Intel, as if it is still a very good company. I certainly agree that some people exaggerate, but Intel is far from the company it was when I started working here and its reputation is significantly worse - for a reason. .. — read more
