I wonder what was offensive about the OP that moderators removed. It is a fact that Intel's benefits programs and also layoffs are affected by regional laws and limitations. I think the thread was informative that there is not any prejudice based on... — read more
More layoffs are coming
Lets examine the latest Gartner results showing another 5% drop in PC shipments. This means volume continues to drop in intel's cash cow. I don't care how many servers they sell and how much they charge but without the volume of client Intel is... — read more
One hundred forty-five technology executives, investors, inventors and other bold-face names posted an open letter Thursday against trump
Big deal I can get a few thousand signatures from ex Intel people who lost their job whist Intel is now recruiting the next wave of h1bs
I definitely agree Intel should promote URMs
Intel does has a problem with URM and hiring and retaining. With 60% of America being Caucasian Americans I'd expect this under represented majority to be hired and retained.

Guys, do you know what happens to unvested 401K after leaving intel? I quit intel in Fall 2015, but my fidelity account still shows the unvested 401K balance. Wasn't this unvested balance supposed to be taken away upon termination? Will this balance... — read more

What a difference in fortunes between TSMC and Intel
One had process leadership, once, had the silicon growth driver, once. Had the opportunity to fabricated a game changing new paradigm in computing. Yes Steve Jobs offered Intel the opportunity to manufacture an ARM core that would have powered... — read more
Makes me laugh on this site that people think the recent rise in Intel stock price has anything to do with the company strategy
This is merely current overall market sentiment. When the broadbase market rises, Intel will float on that tide. Same thing happens when market declines. I would read nothing into the recent rise in stock. In fact you may want to sell.

Why nobody asked for diversity in NBA
In NBA, every team wants the championship. Running a company is no difference. You want to survive and thrive in the cut-throat competition. I am fed up with all these double standard, politically correct crap.
What is the factory bonus amount?
Curious as to know what the factory bonus and shift bonuses are for a process engineer working in the fabs, say for grade 7 or 8. Can anyone share insight into this? I want to know if the pay difference is worth the extra stress of a factory vs non... — read more

HR seems to be swamped--have the layoffs begun there?
Sent three emails (to three different addresses, two of which bounced) and two phone calls today--and message says "sorry there is no one available to take take your call. Try again later." Those people have to be swamped with the volume of layoffs... — read more
BK lacks any reasonable business acumen resulting in utterly confused and misdirected business units
Ultimately leading to additional "new" business failures. Anyone remember when BK presented the facial recognition security system at a tech show and the door would not open, or when Jim Cramer ate his lunch and had him back peddling about wearable... — read more

If BK really wants to make Intel workforce more representatives of the American population
He should maybe hire some Americans. Don'tDon't they teach common sense at San Jose state?
Aicha reporting directly to Murthy :-)
Sounds like it won't be just Murthy getting accelerated RSU vesting shortly.
Well done Aicha!
Not many people can give away $15 unit cost products in exchange for $5 and get a promotion. There is definitely some black magic going on here!
No wonder Intel can't compete with ARM their R&D costs < $500m.
We spend more than that flying Murthy back home.
