What is deal here? Layoff? Redeployment? Do they offer ISP package in that case?

As far as I know, my team doesn't do redundant work. I am an RCG entering at grade 5. My team works on a software tool that many architecturethane teams at Intel use, and the team does not work in the PC sector.

Anyone get a heads up or leak on the criteria for VOLUNTARY (not the much shared foil on ISP) SEPARATION? I was eligible last year (SLL4 in 2014) but passed on it, but I think the job market has improved significantly. Hopefully SSL4 in last 3 years... — read more 

Hired in May '14 - successful and ssl3 in 2014. Successful and ssl5 for 2015. Manager later said I was doing very well and not to worry because I have been here for less than 2 years. Should I be worried?

Intel doesn't have any in house experience. And so it ends up hiring top dollars to hire people from renowned wireless companies like Qualcomm, Broadcom etc thonk ng its getting the best talent from those companies. Reality is that Intel ends up... — read more 

It seems like Intel was already doing a pretty good job fvcking up the wireless business without needing any help. Why would Intel want to pay someone else to fck it up even more? But thank you for taking murthy away from Qualcomm. If you want more... — read more
