Intel's business, engineering, and manufacturing models are all being disrupted viciously and simultaneously by much better competitors. TSMC, AMD, Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Google, and startups are all getting a piece of Intel and rightfully so !!!

@OP+1kpxPDxQ Hope layoff comes to you fast wherever you work and you dive into poverty and debt precipitously. I bet you don't even have the skillsets to get any other competitive jobs.
@3vhc+1kpxPDxQ How proud one must feel at Intel Pat and his ugly sweater, flying around to see leaders begging for money. He should shut up and deliver versus make all these I boast about coming back and being the leader.
He can talk after Intel delivers, just be humble and let your results to the talking.
derp, derp, derp, derp-de-derp, derp, derp, derp, derp-de-derp...
If you're an Intel employee and posting this drivel, then I wish you luck finding employment at one of the competitors you think are better.
OK, honestly, I hope you get laid off and can't find a job and your family lives in poverty until they can sell your organs (other than your brain) on the black market.
Monopolies are bad news, especially for employees that have no leverage.
If there's only one game in town, your salary is basically whatever they decide.
With multiple healthy players, salaries become competitive as companies try to hire from one another and can bid for talent.
If you look at the bo-m in technology you see innovation coming from AMD, Apple, Nvidia, Qualcomm, MediaTek, Broadcom and even Tesla, Amazon and Google. How is that bad for us all? They employ far more and drive far more economic growth than Intel.
If Intel ends up like Kodak or Motorola the US economy wouldn’t miss a beat. So many superior companies provide superior products and value than Intel today.
Ten years ago when Intel has process leadership and x86 monopoly yeah they had tick tock and were the envy and fear of the tech world, but also they screwed everyone they could, just ask Dell and others.
Today the open ecosystem and advanced technology is available for everyone.
It was a pivot that was ten years in the making.
Intel’s arrogance and greed blinded them, now they cry for government money and crow about chip security. Really all they are crying about is how they lost their monopoly and golden goose.
Pat was CTO and in that role decades ago the seeds for the transformation was already evident but he was as blind as everyone who grew up in Intel’s walled garden, also why Pat will fail to be the messiah leading Intel out of the desert! He simply doesn’t have the prospective, like a spoiled child knowing how to be poor, hungry and frugal. He is actually the worst choice if you listen to him these days!
Some people feel that a monopoly is unhealthy and leads to poor products and poor internal management.
A healthy competitive landscape keeps everyone on their toes and benefits the end products.
Why would you wish to see the company fail? I hope you never have a neighbor heap hot coals upon your head.
I am sitting on a huge pile of INTC shares and would much rather see the company thrive. If the company collapses I will lose thousands of dollars and so will many others.
