An outsider here - feel like this is a mistake - pat’s strategy is aggressive but what the company needs - intel’s stock is jumping at this announcement, but i see it as a bad signal for intel 18a - if 18a was poised to be a smash hit, i don’t think... — read more 

Pat is now out of the way, the chips funding has been secured, the finance and design leaders are in place to facilitate the transition to a buyer…..it is happening…..who will it be?

Probably this doesn't go on for infinity, as being CEO of a Product and Foundry company is likely untenable, which is why they have never found an external hire for the job. There is no real internal bench to pick from, as demonstrated by choosing... — read more 

Spill the beans.

Guys, relax I will be your new CEO and we will take company to new dimension all together. Regards, Your next CEO

Great group! Really skilled!

Personally, I believe the vision and strategy was good but the execution su-ked badly and that is not only on Pat. Pat was surrounded by a bunch of id--ts and that includes Dave and Michelle as well, especially Dave.

It's not that I think others will be much better. Chances are higher that they won't than that they will. But I love the fact that he left with his tail tucked between his legs. I love that he walked away humiliated. He caused so much pain to so many... — read more 

These new co-CEO clowns groveling and keep saying that they are “grateful for Pat’s leadership” Are you f’ing kidding me? PG’s leadership resulted in 60% of stock value erosion. How low will it go with DZ and MJ in charge?

With Pats recent firing (not retirement) there will be massive changes coming. Intel has zero direction and clue what's its doing anymore. The fact Dave and Michelle were named CO CEOs is a massive failure and scramble to fill a gap. Lip-Bu Tan... — read more 

With the news about Pat, I’m seriously worried about the sales and marketing team’s 2025 cruise vacation. What’s going to happen?

Sorry to see Pat retire. Did not agree with his vision for our company, but he had the good intentions. I'd say Intel should buy Tenstorrent and make Jim K. the CEO. Problem solved.

Good riddance Pat. There is a god

Having Dave and Michelle as interim CEO is a colossal failure. The Board and HR never learn that we need real successors identified ahead of time. Andy Bryant said they would never again be caught without a strong succession plan. Dave and Michelle... — read more 

The move comes as the chipmaker struggles to keep pace with massive competitors like Nvidia (NVDA) amid the artificial intelligence bo-m. In recent months, Intel has also been the subject of activist investor interest — including a potential... — read more 

Looks like Lip Bu Tan won so maybe he has pushed Pat out, so see if he returns in some form. Expect a large headcount reduction over the next few months, and likely some of the merger rumors were true and Pat was trying to hold them off. Could... — read more 

After Pat is gone!

Wonder how he feels seeing Intel stock gaps up $$$

This was anything but voluntary. Can it be that there were finally some consequences for running Intel into the ground? Did the board finally start doing their job?

Long live the king and the queen. Let's see how badly Zinsner and Johnston Holthaus can mess this place up before we find a permanent new CEO.

He's gone.

He sent an email stating he's retiring! Future of Intel does not bode well! Jump ship while you can!

THANK YOU PAT FOR FU--ING UP THE COMPANY

I don’t know why anyone (bar top) would want to stay with Intel these days. The only thing that still keeps me here is the bad job market, and I don’t want to make any rushed decisions because the situation is as bad and frustrating as it is. Most of... — read more 

Why does Intel keep rewarding managers who manage through fear? It’s baffling to me that a manager who relies on yelling and threats to get results is considered effective. If anything, it’s a sign of poor leadership skills. But somehow, these are... — read more

I think the majority of Intel's problems today have to do with Pat. Who do you think should have been made CEO instead of him, and who'd actually know how to run this place?

Months of turmoil, disarray and anxiety caused me wishing not to have anything to do with Intel anymore. So if I’m to be laid off, bring it on - it will be a relief.

Justin has decided to overinvest in shores (AI/GFx) family at the expense of rapids (CPU) family and drastically limited AI scope to non-hyperscalar only. Intel made it very clear that they lost on data-center market to NVidia and AMD. The... — read more

Looks like separation pay has been deposited

It's hard to understand why so many of you get so caught up in what's going on with the company. Most people won't last a year here. Some will be let go, others will leave by choice, and many will be laid off. There just isn't any long-term security... — read more
