I’ve been with Intel for a long time. I initially really enjoyed my work. Had great colleagues in my team - with some I remained close friends after they left Intel. My mgmt at the time had a drive and was competent. Even with all the usual work problems, obstacles, occasional tensions, I had some sense of achievement and enjoyed the team cohesion towards common goals. Ever since Intel has been going downhill. It reached the point of becoming a generic corporation hollowed out by badly planned growth, greed, toxicity and indifference towards those who used to make Intel a good company - us. Even if leadership manages at least partial recovery, Intel will never again be a truly solid company.

One bad CEO can tank a great company. No, not Pat, BK. Our fab problems and product pipeline issues have finally caught up, right on time.
@iqv... you are living in denial. LTD is the root cause of most of Intel's problems. It is the group solely responsible for Intel losing an over 2 year lead in process technology to TSMC and then never regaining it. This happened 5 years before any merge of ATTD and LTD. The merge was pretty much limited to the duplicate efforts in automation groups and not the core components of either ATTD or LTD. People like you whose self importance is at a toxic level is a major problem at Intel and contributes heavily toward the downfall.
Intel is trying to makes new machines to make chips run as well as the old machines in a few years, but it takes at least 5 year to get the new machines to produce new chips with high quality. This is what happens when you are a monopoly and can get away with not building factories with new machines for 20 years. The time to build new factories was 10 years ago, now it's just as relevant as Theranos or Enron. Intel probably will go bankrupt in the next economic collapse, which is why they hired Bain Capital to help them dismantle Intel piece by piece and sell it for scrap.
No
Nada !
“So you’re saying there’s a chance” — D-mb and D-mberer
No there isn’t. At least not in the incarceration that you and rest world are used too. Old Intel is dead dead and never coming back. Now it can reform and evolve into something new and that has a chance at being prosperous but old version Intel is gone. The sooner we can all accept this sooner we can move on
you are totally uninformed
No.
Intel TD is seriously messed up and no chance. Ann hired her political crew from ATTD into LTD. Ever since, these ATTD folks (who has no knowledge of LTD) took over, kicked out experienced LTD people, and they lied to Ann to their own survival in the past 4 years. Now LTD is polluted by nonsense ATTD packaging people. The weeds invaded the grassland, it is getting worse. Intel TD is dead.
