10nm
Just a general thread on 10nm
Intel picked up two more top AMD folks. Rats off a sinking ship lol
Darren McPhee and Greg Stoner.
Does anyone work in Intel's FPGA (formerly Altera) group? What's wrong with you guys? You were the only group lagging this quarter.
Are you worried about layoffs? WHy not? You just lost as massive competition to Xylinx. Server group winning, beating everyone. Modem group winning, beating Qualcomm. Mobileye winning. NV memory winning. Consumer PCs winning. And you guys aren't... — read more

Intel plans to outsource their entry-level processor production to Taiwan
The outsourcing of some segments of production has been discussed for some time, but now it looks as though that plan has been set into motion. The article reports that Intel has begun extensive talks with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company... — read more
Does Intel need a CEO? As long as each division has an effective leader what's the point of a CEO? Murthy manages TMG, Shenoy (or is it
spellman?) data center. Israeli guy mobileye. Someone fpga (who?). someone memory (who?). someone wireless (who?)

Intel Mgt not all Bad

What's Intel's Title Hierarchy?
Specifically, technical Title Hierarchy @ Intel (I am sure finance and other folks have a different pyramid) - anyhow, please share if you can, I do not work at Intel.
What is the salary range of Grade 8 Engineers at Intel?
Not sure where to ask, so here goes on TLO - I'd like to find out what the base salary range of grade 8 engineers at Intel is (as of 2018 or 2019). Not sure if you can chime in on the total compensation as well - what's the break down and what the... — read more
Good earnings, but declines are expected in Q4
No one can argue that the numbers are as good as they can possibly be, but this article states that declines will follow in Q4 and that the 14 nm shortage will finally kick in and reflection the company’s revenue. I was hoping to get some thoughts on... — read more
Shame on the Board of Directors
Four months since BK was fired on June 21st. This is embarrassing. Can the board not find anyone to run this company regardless of how big the pile of cash is?

Apple is abandoning Intel’s chips in macs by 2020

When is new CEO announcement coming?
Where are we on new CEO announcement?? During ER call this may be one of key topic many people interested to discuss, sailing on a ship without captain is not a good sign.
Not new CEO but Intel needs new board
Board should be sacked enmasse . Board is root cause of all problems. Concepts like contra-revenue and virtuous cycle get past only a most inept board.
Bloat in senior exec ranks
Go thru list of MCM. There are at least 5-6 senior execs who can simply vanish and nothing will be affected. They add zero (actually negative) value. Same for at least 150 VPs. 6 MCM members and their staff, admin, TA, etc ~ $30M annual 150 VPs and... — read more
How does time in grade affect your risk for layoffs
I was recently told by my manager during our 1 on 1 that I should pay attention to the fact that I've been in the same grade for 6 years. That sounded like a vague attempt to tell me that I'm the next to go for the next round of layoffs. I'm 40 and... — read more

Nobody wants the job
Anybody else feels like nobody wants the CEO job? Seen this mentioned in another comment and now it's starting to seem more and more plausible. Why else would the search last as long as it has - with no proper resolution in sight? There are a few... — read more
