By promoting them to managers. How stupid is this. The person has demonstrated a technological skill, have numerous accomplishments, developed expertise in a field, actually enjoy what they are doing, make positive contributions and their mgrs promote them to something they are NOT skilled at, managing people. Stupidity has killed Intel.

Just as Lion does not care about SHEEP's opinion ..
Not here to impress you or anyone @3sco 😎😎😊 I won't be the one rotting in a miserable company Intel devaluing myself with time. Am just passing my time until I can leave.
It is well known Intel is clueless in every aspect of their business. GMs and Directors are just trying to add people to their organizations to strengthen their positions and existence. They don't even attempt to fix the problems, processes or people issues. Favoritism and endless spending. Just to name a few, are well known outside Intel. I will never hire an Intel employee in my future corps of employment.
@2kij - Yeah right ... b---s---
Neither 😝😎😊 @2zwb
Maybe if I wasn't gainfully employed and well invested😋😋😋 @2hzo.
Both of you would have to troll here to know who is trolling. Takes one to know one ?
I am a high-grade individual-contributor experienced-hire URM! 😊😊 😊
...😉 😉😉😭with many employment options outside Intel. Lets just say other corps want me !!!
@2xuh are you a URM with a STEM degree working in HR or just some poor bastárd's manager?
@2xuh - Emoji trollie, it is you who needs to get a life instead of trolling on here. Moved out of your parents basement yet? Got job?
@dqr get a life instead of trying to be me 😑😔😑
Exactly right
manager is technically good but management skills in negative direction
I did not expect this from such big company
Manager is nervous when pressure comes. Just work all the hours
No idea on SSL matrix and policy to map it w.r.t grade expectations
Actually they don't have time to read and understand , do home work , long term productivity from team and individuals
Just safeguard the self and move bananas randomly
I was about to laugh and shame being in the team
I will blame company not the person or manager
It's the fault in company policy in promoting people as manager
Working for few years in technical ladder will not give managerial skills
They can be principal engineer
Most of the company has this issue in technical field
Then, after the bad engineers also fail as managers, the other managers give them a lateral to IC.
That's called the "technical track" career path. You get PEs that are bad engineers AND bad managers.
@iye putting that BS to good use in HR I see. Yeah, you're a real people person.
🙈🙉🙊
The engineers are asked to do the impossible (7 perpendicular lines)
I speak from experience.

Ok guys, clearly you haven't done your homework. Please read through these to understand how Intel works:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_principle
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilbert_principle
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Putt%27s_Law_and_the_Successful_Technocrat
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect
There's also the Septic Tank Principle that best describes the Intel organisation: Big chunks of sh*t will always rise up and float on the top.
You all are jealous engineers stuck with no clue what your boss or bosses boss think is important. If you knew you'd be promoted two grades or a SLM manager already. You ready for ACT2?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Its worse than that. They promote bad engineers to managers, they promote green engineers to managers. They promote bad green engineers to managers. They promote bad green engineers with PhD to managers. The place is run by bad engineers with PhDs and no experience. That's how you keep your URMs and PhDs when they can't do the jobs they were hired for. Either that or move them to HR.
Intel didn't invent this - it's just the Peter Principle in operation.
That being said there is a bunch of stuff urging people to grow out of their comfort zones. Could work for some, but people are different. Some people grow wildly outside their comfort zone, some wilt. Why "one size fits all"?
