How do we expect to get back on top if our main strategy when it comes to hiring is cheaper, not better? It feels like nobody is thinking about the future, just what can be saved right now. But hiring bad employees just because they're cheaper does not spell good things for Intel in the long run. It's not that complicated. We need to invest in talent if we want Intel to have a future.

The new breed of RCG are not the same quality as the experienced engineers. Intel abandoned merit when their sourcing university started recruiting Indians with B.Tech degrees directly into Masters programs for their "New American University" model. Intel lost its lead after ACT when they laidoff the experienced engineers and replaced them with H-1B. The failures of today are as much a failure from the many incompetent foreigner RCGs as it is to management.
India quality + ASU degrees = Intel results

Intel should focus on retaining experienced employees vs hiring RCG’s that know nothing.
@mdn+1 now you know why Intel can never be great again.
Don’t waste your time, move on.
Nobody wants to work for Intel..
Intel PEs, Senior PEs, Fellows are a joke. They are dinosaurs and just hanging in there to collect RSUs. No other company will hire them! They do Grade8 jobs.
Go to a college recruiting event and have a look first hand at how many people do not want to work for Intel.
Comparing against alternatives, they see
Lower pay
Low growth
Fewer perks
Questionable long term outlook
This has been a huge problem in the group I worked with. 90% of its members were 65+, barely worked, were very slow, inefficient, used bad/outdated practices, and the managers were the same – impossible to make real improvements or future-proof our products with 9 out of 10 employees just coasting for 1-2 years before taking "medical leave of absence" for 12 months, then retiring.
Lol over 100K employees and cannot find talents. Sounds like ghost company. What the f is going wrong with this company? My company only has 10 people and everyone is very talents
Don't worry I'm sure hiring more foreign village cousins and more outsourcing to companies run by foreign village cousins with US taxpayer money will pay off in the long run!
Who needs talent when you have loads of diversity. If you can't see it, you can't be it!
I’ll give you an example from the outside. I started the interview process two months ago. I actually want to work for Intel because I want to be part of the story of making it great again. The verbal offer was already extended to me, and it’s acceptable. However, getting a written offer and formal start date is growing tiresome. I’ve been patient, but it’s wearing thin and I’m about to go somewhere else and accept a different offer because Intel simply cannot execute.
My fear is that if they are this slow just to get an offer out to me, what else is broken?
wall street works on immediate gratification
then the sharks/vampires jump ship to hollow out another company
presently intel is collapsed on the floor and breathing heavily
Talent people already left. Only the id--ts like Intel.
Main strategy is talk talk talk and govt money.
I think we need more people from HP.
