Intel took the nostalgic approach whilst leaning on PowerPoint, an untucked and wrinkled dress shirt, and the miracles of out of band management for laptop/desktops. Nvidia wore an elegant lizard print, no doubt a smart cologne, and an inspiring vision for the future. Not clear if this is a reflection of differing corporate cultures, but a stark contrast, nonetheless

@ar, I would have done exactly what she did. Changing the Sabbatical rules was one of the most Fu---d Up things Intel has done to pi-s off people besides the coffee tea and fruit debacle or the RTO mandate, lol.
He should have gone full solidarity with the WFH crowd by showing up in his PJs
Out of band management. 4% organic PC growth. Demand growth through ill-explained AI capabilities. I was not popping wood
Intel’s keynote could have been an email.
Boringggggg
All of the classy leaders who inspired results have left. You could all form a list of them in 5 minutes. We are left with leaders that could not get a job at another top tech company. Nvidia, Apple, MS, Broadcom etc will mostly only hire grade 8 and below engineers that have been with Intel less than 5 years.
Not comparable. Intel is in rear mirror
That was so pathetic, how do these people have jobs.
Jim Johnson showing up w/ unkempt look is to appear as "one of the people" or "one of the engineers." The problem is that he should have tucked his shirt in and worn a sports jacket to gain a little professional credibility here. Or worn a sweater. Or something.
Carlos from CDW looked sharp. Pavan from MS looked sharp w/ a sweater.
Don't forget that MJH took her sabbatical right before sabbatical rules changed. That's leadership!
Same here, but at an event like this, at least show you care. I mean, the wrinkle pattern tells me he just got off the toilet and forgot to tuck it back in, not to mention the belly roll. Show some discipline
At the very least, the Intel presenters need to work on their image! I hate to rag on people's appearance, but the way the presenters looked was a huge turn off for me.
Chic Geek is out. RTO now!
Really. Tuck in your shirt when representing the company. WFH destroys awareness
Let’s be honest. Nvidia has always been Jensen’s love and both have grown together over many years. Intel has been a stepping stone for opportunists. I have a metaphor but will keep it clean
