Does Intel Value You?
I can understand completely why people are not forthcoming when they give notice at work. It’s so much easier to say “I just need a change, but it’s been great working here!” than it is to say “I never got over the fact that you cancelled my family... — read more
Silent protest
In Santa Clara on Friday can everyone against the way management has conducted the layoff wear a black top or tie. Would be a real site of solidarity if I walked in sc12 or RNB and saw a show of support for our colleagues.

Do we know how much % of diversity candidates received ISP?
Intel might not have released such details but anyone with their teams or any other team you know about, what's general consesus. I personally didn't saw any diversity candidate (Womans/ Blacks) being affected.. Could be just a coincidence
Intel reality TV
Now that BK's show has flopped miserably and sunk a few million $ and turned off an entire maker market, can we have some more ideas ? How about Murthy vs Richard on biggest loser?
iCDG project engineers
These are the non URM folks leading the next series of doomed projects. Of course there needs to be accountability, so they will be fired as these projects fail while I work on my CEO path. -AE
