So how can we organize and end the draconian nonsense driven by VPs and Intel HR?

You're all dreamers and you ain't gonna do squat to Intel. Now move it. The drive thru is backing up. LOL!
Google Age Discrimination. If I were you I would contact this law firm. http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/08/14/over-250-people-join-google-age-discrimination-class-action-lawsuit/
@gwy It's funny when people use words like "shill" and don't even know what they mean.
And now watch this thread disappear....
This ain't about race, this is about the data, and the algorithm, that shows firing skews towards older (over 40) workers in the US, which is against the law. In all these cases, Intel legal will advise, and the top brass will decide on the level of risk they are willing to tolerate to improve the bottom line, and on how far policy can go before it really backfires.
The EEOC has not yet made a notable example of any corporation going after older employees, and the problem has gotten worse over time, not just at Intel, but throughout corporate America as they toss older workers for younger ones.
Until the EEOC gets serious and really penalizes a company to create an example, we will see companies incrementally being more risk-taking in terms of cherry picking firing algorithms, with plausible deniability, that disproportionately impact workers over 40. The data from Intel itself clearly shows this result, and it is naive to think that the CEO and head of HR are not smart enough to see that same data and know exactly what they are doing.
In the past, Intel might have waited a few months to hire after a round of firing. Even CRB encouraged internal redeployed hiring before opening external reqs. BK doesn't care. His treatment of employees is immoral.
OP, aren't you late for a MAGA rally?
@mmt nailed it. The party line from the top executives is "we don't discriminate against majorities" but the quota percentage targets established by those very same top executives translate into HR policies that are in fact discrimination.
@1saq input makes me cringe, but it's hard to doubt. There are so many toxic managers that get passed around instead of kicked to the curb, you'd think Intel was a public school and their managers were teachers.
The more openly and publicly religious and god fearing a person, more evil they are. Indian CTO /fellow didn't need to hire the Indian female from same part of India as his, based on her performance of her 13 misconducts. He chose her after reading ants (hands) palmistry and astrology that he practices.
Intel maintaining their low standards.
Examplory Intel 😊 like the old Indian female IT director who had done 13 misconducts (reported against her) .. protected by GM all this time and today promoted to work for IT CTO.
Thirteen hardworking employees who braved it to report her misconducts to senior management. All 13 were stuupid to do so.
Who is cleaning up Intel when cleaners have created most dirt in Intel ?
You need to team up with Asians for starters.
Yawn
@hia- translation: it's so obvious you can't give me an Libtard, 65% of graduates are women. Don't forget how easy white males have it at silicon valley such as Google 😂.
You are nothing more then a leftist shill!💩
Examples of Advantaged Class especially in Intel hiring, are Under Represented Minorities and Tech Females. Heaven forbid an Intel hiring manager make the effort to screen a pool of applicants - including lengthy technical interview loops - only to find that a non-URM/non-TF candidate is the most qualified. That manager then must wade through a pile of new/unseen "wait, did you consider THESE applicants??" resumes of URM/TF candidates who didn't apply for the position but still magically produced by HR, and provide a detailed per-candidate defense of the choice of the non-URM/non-TF. This has been going on at Intel for at least 10 years, so any 'imbalances' are due simply to the fact that men & women are different, and some ethnicities are more inclined than others toward tech careers.
Or, BK can just spend more money to hire less-qualified, less-motivated people to reach full representation by '18. Win?
Just when you think OWM waste is gone, you find a few more rotting in IT at the bottom of the food chain. Life must sukc when RCGs are above you while you at nearl retirement are just a load of bullshi-it trying to fix skype in the trenches.
@aay If you don't realize how easy straight white males still have it in today's society compared to everyone else, then you really need to take off your blindfolds.
You want an example? The example is the whole world around you.
Look at the statistics from ACT, totally older based that the statistics exposes the truth.
There were lots of Indians laid off. Now they will use this against your class action
Part of BK's cowardice and lies about staying in the MFG Council are that he will not have to hire American. He prefers H1B processing so in quitting the council he can keep his original plan. You can't trust this sorry SOB.
"Advantaged class of people" still waiting on an example of it?
@OOKJhLE-vpj - underrated post
Be glad you escaped. Move on.
Intel is the dirtiest company I ever seen, and they are dirty against white, black, middle black, yellow, young and old (preferably old) so I would not put the problem in terms of white against the rest.
The problem is not your Indian colleague, the problem is intel!
For so many years, many white men have complained about civil liberties movements. Now that they actually feel a bit of a squeeze themselves, they want to start their own civil liberties movement, despite still being the most advantaged class of people on today's society, by far. Funny.
