What does everyone think of Pat? I finally watched him and was totally underwhelmed, does he talk like that internally too? I am sure that was rehearsed and massaged to craft an image and impression, is it me he looks like he is trying too hard... — read more
Topics regarding layoffs at Intel Corp.
No problem! Don't worry! Intel would keep its share by using sneaky underhanded tactics (again)
Already starting it up with OEMs https://www.extremetech.com/gaming/321919-alienware-really-doesnt-want-you-to-buy-an-amd-ryzen-pc
Is Intel still getting rid of older employees?
I was laid off around three years ago. I won't lie, it took me nearly a year to find a job that didn't cut my pay in half compared to what I used to get here. Still, I did find it and I can say I'm doing well once again. I do wonder sometimes if... — read more

Not easily replaceable?
Those who are the most talented are leaving. It seems that Intel doesn't give great importance to it because they think that all are replaceable. They don’t see it as a loss for the company when a good employee leaves because the job is done... — read more
Notice some of the positives of people outside of your bubble
I sometimes notice that the groups that are not dominated by “sentiments that seem to live on this website” are more open minded and easier to work with. They are also easier to learn from since they are patient with questions. While hostile people... — read more
Intel is not as bad as everybody make it seem
We're certainly in a better position then we were in two or three years ago. For as long as layoffs are not happening on a monthly basis as they did back then, I'm satisfied. Good pay, decent benefits, and interesting work are enough to keep me... — read more
Staying here just because you are reluctant to relocate?
Someone made a good observation that Intel benefits a lot from the fact that some people have their reasons for not being able to move to a new area. I had long intended to leave but I am still here because my family is resistant to the move. I... — read more
Intel's new branding is just following everyone else's trend

You know what's the saddest thing?
Intel could again be the great company and the industry leader it once was. The only thing that's between us and that is the lack of good leadership. Not just the CEO, but the entire ELT. If we could get the right people in power this place would... — read more
Why stocks are going up during April. We need lower price, so we get more for rsu
Why stocks are going up during April. We need lower price, so we get more number of stocks for rsu
We should get iCDG back
Given 5G/6G future biz opportunities , selling our modem division is a very bad decision. We spend billons to develop technology ans sold it for peanuts. Bad decision from our mgmt
Name one thing
You have to be realistic, there is no ideal company. I changed a few companies before I came to Intel and I was missing something in each. In one the atmosphere was great, but the pay was a real disappointment. In another I had good health insurance... — read more
No layoffs yet - impressive
It's almost two months since PG started and nothing has been cut yet. It's so great that everyone gets to keep their jobs while transforming the company back to a leadership position. Impressive!
How far have intel fallen, only will fall further
Pat’s great return to IDM 2.0 and beats his chest about 20 billion investment, must be a real man with a fab. Oops he has awoken the giant who is REALLY going to spend a HUNDRED BILLION. Pat likely can’t even get his first EUV till 2024, LOL — read more

Getting rid of top talent
Intel is not even trying to keep its top talent. Actually, they seem happy when somebody gives their notice when they find a new job. I'm yet to hear of them offering to match the new pay or some other benefits to keep them. All they see is a big... — read more
For whom is Intel still a good company?
Some here are defending Intel, as if it is still a very good company. I certainly agree that some people exaggerate, but Intel is far from the company it was when I started working here and its reputation is significantly worse - for a reason. .. — read more
Use Intel while you can
At this point, Intel still looks really good on your resume. Not sure if this will be the case five or ten years from now considering the direction we've been heading, but right now working at Intel can only improve your chances of being hired. Use... — read more

Why are people returning?
I can understand people who never before worked at Intel deciding to join the company since they have no idea what's really happening here. However, seeing people who left or (even worse) were laid off return boggles my mind. I always consider people... — read more

thoughts? "ICF 2.0; 2nd try's a charm"?
Competitiveness
It kind of seems to me that Intel is losing its competitiveness, but I’m not quite sure it’s doing the right thing to fix it. Someone said that in that sense, PG might announce a completely new compensation structure across the company. How... — read more
Would you like to be rehired?
I have a friend who was laid off 2015 and when I relayed the rumors to him that Intel might soon want to rehire him, he just laughed. Why would anyone want to come back here is not clear to me. People have long since found much better positions. I... — read more
Will Qualcomm ruin what it bought from Nuvia?

The idea of rewarding teams and not individuals
I liked someone’s thinking here who said Intel should reward teams and not individuals. I’m just wondering what it would look like if the awards were based on team performance? Maybe it would be good. Or maybe it would not solve any problem and... — read more

Why do so many folks hate Intel?
It's like it personally offended you for something. It isn't a person, it's a company. It pays you to do a job and gives you certain benefits as a bonus. Is it as good of a place to work as it was a decade ago? No, it's not. But it's certainly not as... — read more
