To sum up Intel’s state of the art of current free fall are couple of pointers, which are no brainer:
- Political goons run the show who are no different at all from the corrupt politicians who run the country
- 95% of executives just speak gibberish and live in delusion
- 90% of top level managers starting from second level managers have not even the faintest idea of the work being done at the ground level by engineers/research scientists or technicians
- Mediocrity, loyalty, a** licking and sycophancy to upper level management are the only rules and laws which make you valuable in the company and get you promoted
- Managers start becoming insecure with smart employees and starts devising ways to get rid of them in the pretext of performance or attitude issues
- R&D is defunct with no real thrust, no goal, no focussed investment and no long term objective apart from haphazardly and insincerely trying to mimic TSMC or Samsung,
- 95% + Employees start getting proud, arrogant, restless, complacent and skill-less within few years of joining Intel.
- Teamwork, One Intel etc are all sham and never meant to be. They are just an internal PR stunt
- The big and boastful exec shows and talk on Circuit are all talk and no work.
