Rumor mill has it that Folsom shuttle program will not exists. Mather airport is renovating and they asked Intel for $6M to have intel its own spot and BK said nope. They will be shutting down the shuttle to and from Folsom. Employees are up in arms... — read more 

There are way more female Indians at Intel than Asian (non-Indian) males. The published diversity data would never reveal this, however. This will only get worse since Indian females are considered a diversity hire whereas Asian (non-Indian) males... — read more

It's been around 7 months since the ISP. I started working shortly after the big shock. I still can't believe what they did. What was the big hurry? I still come to this site to see how everybody is doing. I feel for those that still have not landed... — read more

Here come the locust, the cankerworm, the caterpiller, and the palmerworm. Devastation shall follow in their wake.

No diversity hire at Intel should feel good since the perception will be that they were only hired because they are part of the Diversity hiring quota program and were not the most talented engineer.

I was maxed out for grade 8 and really didn't want to move to grade 9. The problem they will have moving forward is chaos after focal with whoever gets SSL4. Best thing to do is get the hell out of Intel ASAP otherwise your life will be miserable... — read more

Anyone going to the 360/sales kickoff in Anaheim this week?

I heard a very good engineer that worked for IoT and Maker group on Intel and he was fired after fabricated accusations and HR did not help him...Some people were talking about him here in Santa Clara... So with all this focus thing, I am really... — read more 

DO IT! While you still have a chance. Plenty of other companies need you. Tell your manager to stuff it!

Wonder what's cooking in the pot by HR for the upcoming focal? Here is my guess -Stock level 4 and 5 will be used vigorously -Good job but you been @ the same grade level for last ... yrs so if I were you I would start looking for another job

Where can I find it?

Does anyone know if ISP folks are getting back at Intel as green badge o contingent workers? Intel doesn't seem very transparent about the ISP and green badge. I have heard folks coming back as GB but every time I call HR, I am told ISP folks cant... — read more 

Here is the thread @FwF6KAh - their stock is near 52 week high, a rare accomplishment today

3000 more homosexuals and 150000 more H1B VISAS and Intel will be just fine. So calm down people. Come to our side, the evil faggot side and you will see the light.

BK will be fired this year. Intel is in shambles because of his ridiculous leadership skills and the stocks going down the drain. China and India will own Intel soon and Americans will all be out of jobs.

I just took a look at the Wind River Systems forum here. That place sounds like it's a mess. People are openly attacking Intel and each other. Glad I don't work there.

I'm hearing that the Chinese economy could really hurt us over the next three qtrs. anybody have any thoughts?

Just talked to a friend at Intel that has been there 18 years and he said big layoffs are coming at Intel. He's in management...so I don't doubt it. He said some of the people impacted will be notified before focal, he thinks these will be ISP and... — read more

I hear that some folks were let go - that's all what I know. It may be just a rumor, it may be a lie but wanted to share with you here as there are no updates

SSart hiring external maybe we can turn the ship around. NOT. Signs of trouble for Inhel. http://news.yahoo.com/theres-huge-change-going-intel-193135360.html?nf=1

My friend was just notified today. Was asked to either take the VSP or go on redeployment. He has to let them know by Jan 18th. He is in Folsom.

Do we have any updates here? Is it true that we'll be cutting even more folks here in New Mexico in 2016

Found a work around to crack the RCG IP address. Next step is to identify his name. Who wants to report him to HR once we have his name? He clearly has insulted and threatened many people here and deserves this. I am not sure if he works for Intel... — read more

And it won't just be old guys.

Intel has essentially 1 product. So really all past attempts have not only been allowed to fail they've been pushed to fail (abandoned/cut, under-promoted, ignored, etc). Getting a 2nd product might be a baby-step re-boot at this point. But to create... — read more

Do you guys know what happened with this #classaction - there was a big hoopla about it late last year, has it been settled?

An observation about H1B & layoff paradox So #H1B engineers were brought in with the assumption that there is a lack of local #engineers. Right? Now, when the company starts to layoff, it means they have extra resources that it is needed. So the... — read more 

We have heard that intel will be integrating McAfee and Altera into its functions that match the BUs of those firms. Any news about the progress yet? Are McAfee employees still around or all have been let go? Any insights?
