With the deadwood and filth gone, intel is a much better place to work now. I could feel a new level of freshness in the office. This change is certainly going to trigger more and more innovative ideas and help the company recover from the lag it... — read more
Another Intel virtuous cycle...
you hire consultants to help you become more efficient and then It helps consultants if you stay inefficient and need their services...miracle.
ISP'd people ---- receive your $9000 for COBRA yet?
To those who selected the $9000 option +6 months for COBRA, have you received your $ yet? I've received my severance + LOS, but not the COBRA. Any word? If you've received it, how much was it after taxes? I was emailed and told last week I needed to... — read more

A classic use-case for IoT and drones
Intel must invest on drones that fly around and identify folks falling under 2 categories - 1) Having grey hair and 2) Huge buttocks. Once such idiots are identified, the IoT-enabled drone should automatically query the seat management system... — read more
Intel is the laughing stock of the tech industry

ISPs: OR Unemployment question
I applied promptly on June 1st. But they marked that week as well as the following week as "waiting period", may be because 1st week was only partial week ? Is it same for everyone?
If you still care at this point then you're doing it wrong.
"So and so product is going to fail" "So and so crap is ruining Intel" Tell me, unless you're a fanboy at this point then why the HECK should you care? "The company" obviously has never really cared about you, isn't caring about you, and will never... — read more

Rather than all the Circuit BS propaganda.

The consultants and HR designed the new way to do ISP each quarter/month without big packages.
The consultants and HR designed the new way to do ISP each quarter/month without big packages. This is called "No company wide ISP happen anymore", since company wide ISP needs to give official report and packages.
INTC CRASH!
HA HA HA! INTC down 4.3% as I write this. The end is near for this creepy company who stole the BK from Burger King! Enjoy the slide down RCG! China semi will eat your lunch!
Seems layoffs will be implemented every quarter and no more nice packages.
With Brexit, elections, and stocks collapsing, Q3/Q4 look awful. Intel is the new Black...berry.
Last AR completed - Turned in my laptop
ERP chosen and turned in my laptop this morning. It feels great being free.. I feel for those left behind as already they are talking about a complete abandonment of risk taking. Intel culture is not what it once was.
I am glad I take this chance to leave Intel.

Enjoy unemployment morons
Hahahaha
Ironic that world class Engineers are fired by HR.
In a company that needs desperately the former and could dispose the latter. Note: I'm an outsider. Intel's power shift is going to destroy it.
What a wonderful day
Today is a wonderful day in the history of intel. The leadership at intel has identified and cleaned up the dirt and filth that had accumulated in the company over the past few decades. The last sweep happened today. Thousands of grey-haired fat... — read more

TSMC and ARM versus Intel fabs and x86 and more
As a longtime technologist, many observations- the battle lines between TSMC/ARM and Intel fab/x86 have been drawn for a long time. Once ARM starts getting traction in servers, it is the beginning of the end.. So many parallels between Carly Fiorina... — read more
We've all had our retirement and going away parties and now all of those who accepted ERP and VSP will be gone on Monday.
For those of us left to clean up after the massacre, will the healing begin right away? How long until its business as usual again? I realize change will be the only constant from now on but my entire remaining team will be drained if we can't get to... — read more
VPG in FM cuts are starting.
Was offered VSP, didnt take it and now Just got a 1:1 request with manager for tmrw morning. He said to bring laptop. Nothing good can come from this. Esp since manager is supposed to be on vacation.
So if Intel really wants to reduce its workforce.....
End the sabbatical program.. BOOM done!
So those that stay at Intel and defend it or think it will do great, please share why! I think intel is DOA
I am a longtimer but have always felt intel was lucky that IBM picked the x86 it easily could have been a z80 or 6800 and then where would this company be. With the monopoly that enabled lots of good and some very bad habits that permeat and are... — read more
The Name of INTEL Internal Political Game: Fear, Angst and Dictatorship

Why staying at Intel? Wanna go through this every year?
I give Intel no more than 5 years.
Age based layoffs are expensive!
