Intel CEO Voices Concerns About CHIPS Funds, Export Controls
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is lobbying for a large portion of the $52 billion that the U.S. will provide in subsidies for new fab construction—and urging the U.S. to ease up on export controls that are throttling sales to China, the world’s largest... — read more
Please board push out PG
The company today is in far worse shape than it was in early 2021 when the missionary from Pennsylvania took over
Are you people serious?
This is less and less the company it once was. It's understandable that things change, but Intel has changed a lot for the worse. However, I still don't understand those who say they would like to be laid off. Really? Are you joking?
Tower?
Is Tower deal dead?
Aug 31 last day for ppl in CPM
Have those layoffs been announced or they will be announced soon?
Layoffs at Qualcomm, Dell
I think it'll be our turn next. I'll be shocked if we don't see a major round before the end of this month.
Low hanging fruits
Gr.6 SWE in Oregon here. How come the lowest performer in the team gets promoted to manage BBs while the top performer gets mediocre school grade projects. Isn't it these guys that are to be laid off first ?
Was it only TD who got the new rewards?
Was it only TD that have base/rewards reinstated and a new 8x APB?
Interesting take on recent earnings

Should I leave Intel for Nvidia?
I’m grade 7. Got an offer from Nvidia with base pay which is on par with my Intel base + QPB + APB assuming bonuses are maximized. Also got 250k NVDA RSU as entry bonus, while at Intel I have ~70k and in the last round INTC gave ~20k…
Have you ever wondered who makes the nasty comments about "whining"?
Has anyone noticed that you see a ton of complaints about "whining" on the Intel layoff board comments? It's just Intel's corporate culture. Managers are groomed to be arrogant, narcissistic pricks.
Always have a plan
Even though it is quite clear that there will always be more layoffs here, some still do not have an exit plan. Why? Unfortunately, I have seen many cases of people who believed they were safer than others, only to end up experiencing a rude... — read more
Where's the reward?
"reward" is just back pay in stock form? Well my expectations were that they'd just conveniently forget about the reward, so it's about equivalent, but what audacity. Especially as the stock will probably drop. I'm glad I didn't sign for the... — read more
Intel OTF FEB
Another bonus that missed the promised date. Pushed back to 8/15-8/18. Gotta love it when middle management's reward is to sc--w over techs and anyone below them who actually worked for a bonus and made it possible. What a joke!
Intel’s new addiction to subsidies
Some fundamental things that the Intel Government Affairs team have failed to make the ELT understand as they all beat their chests about the US and EU Chips Act include the following : what Governments “give”, they can equally take away what... — read more
Cash is King
Cash is king. It doesn't lie. Earnings are easily manipulated (like Intel recently changing the depreciation life of fab equipment). Cash generated from Operations, less plant investments = - $12 Billion. Let that sink in. So far this year, Intel... — read more
Intel is not a tech company
Intel is not a tech company it is a monopoly management company except the leaders are too stupid to identify the sources of their franchise and adapt accordingly. In political organizations they would not measure up. I learned a lot in Intel on what... — read more

Are we done with layoffs this year?
After the coming layoff batch End of August, will we be done for the year or we expect more layoffs?
Bookkeeping
Intel folks are seriously celebrating losing money but due to bookkeeping making it appear profitable. Keep Believing sheep
Thoughts on reporting manager for plagiarizing my work
And discrediting me.
Don’t believe the good news, things are FUBAR
The bleeding continues with no end on sight. I am amazed the BoD is in on this. “In the quarter ended in June, Intel’s posted $12.95 billion in sales, off 15.5 percent, but even after some pretty substantial cost-cutting, the company still posted... — read more
Biggest difference between July 2016 and July 2023
Me and many of my colleagues took the ERP or a VSP in 2016. Things were stagnant, layoffs were happening, morale was low, leadership (BK, Murthy, etc.) was weak, and there was no visible strategy for moving in a positive direction. Fast forward one... — read more
INTC to the moon...wooohoooo
Once it touches $100 I'm retiring
Eating my words…
… I did not think the results would be as good as they were. I was wrong… they are still not good, but better than anticipated.
