What does ACT stands for?
Just curious about what ACT stands for.
Tick Tock the core of Intel excellence had been taken my TSMC. BK and TMG cronies need to be fired!
Intel was the envy semiconductor world for the last decade having made revolutionary changes like strained silicon, Hik metal gates and finfets. The past few years haven't been pretty as the clock work tick Tock has slipped as Intel product launches... — read more
Intel's 8th generation core processor codenamed Coffee lake will blow your mind
The boffins at Intel are expecting between 0-3% increase in performance over kabelake which will translate into 8hrs and 10 minutes of PowerPoint editing - that's a full 10 minutes more than kabelake. With coffeelake you can sign into your pc with... — read more
How Intel rewards achievement and success
This example is from iCDG but I'm sure everyone has their own: Single handedly delivered LTE solution for Intel and put them back in the mobile race - Dresden site closed. Delivered Apple and put Intel back in the mobile game - Sophia Antipolis... — read more
Sales teams do not work
All org structure flat, ICs and FLMs report to VPs according to employee DB, no clarity on decision making process, on timelines, on programs. Corporation want us to sell more stuff but if you try you can be pushed back by "no supply" or "no... — read more
Will Intel exit the year with more than 117k employees?
How can we find this data. Already in the last quarter 6k were added back. The corporate empires and ivory towers need maintaining.
ERP - Pension rollover just happened
Just landed today into my rollover IRA.. This closes the book for me on all ERP $$
Took ERP - SERMA healthcare assistance?
I was at Intel for 30+ years and took the ERP. My SERMA balance is ~$49k. I looked today and noticed an additional ~$12k loaded as SERMA Healthcare assistance. Was this the 6 month adder to the 1.5 year COBRA?
ACT was a huge mistake!
Repost (deserves a separate thread): ACT was a huge mistake, it's execution was irresponsible. We cannot walk folks out and just chop them like that after many of them dedicating their life to Intel. I personally know many who literally gave their... — read more

First of the many hyped but not deliverable initiatives to fail and layoffs are soon to follow
http://semiaccurate.com/2016/09/12/intels-xpoint-pretty-much-broken/
Lets get on topic of Intel and "layoffs", forget this H1B and hate, lets look again at the facts why more layoffs are but certain.
There has been no real change in direction, no new real strategic thrusts, no real efforts to change culture or structure. The whole business has changed, and yet Intel is the same, just 12K less, but the same. More layoffs are but certain! @JbkWcYP

Murthy is a fine human
About 7 years ago, my group was disbanded in San Diego.. ended up jobless. Murthy that had recruited me from Grad school, personally reached out and said he was sorry. He made calls and served as a reference in my job search. 4 months later I had a... — read more

How to be safe at Intel
Just make sure you're lowly paid.
Andy Bryant needs to resign.
He was the one who crusaded to elevate clown shoes to CEO. Let's look at the basis. TMG was already falling behind in pursuit of Moore's Law (22nm rolled out late and PTD support stayed extraordinarily long due to yield issues), decision to build Fab... — read more
Open letter to Intel CEO/HR, how can you justify posting external requisitions and hire external candidates with same experience as ACT victims?

Intel bought Soft Machines
What a joke of a company. Good for them! Swindled Intel out of $250M http://www.theregister.co.uk/AMP/2016/09/09/intel_soft_machines/ The unbroken streak of useless acquisitions continues!
Used to love working at Intel...then there was ACT...

There is no diversity at Intel
It's like the Apple 1984 ad but replace them with Asians. The drum beat to oblivion is rumbling and the drones are marching.
