Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

"What’s the difference btw "advisor to VP" and “TA to VP”?"

Ability to connect the correct dongle to the laptop and projector and Powerpoint skils.

LOL. Clown company hands out meaningless titles to the biggest sh-t-talking frauds. Is anyone surprised Intel is falling off a cliff?

The PE story is a sad one. In 2007, I skipped going down the PE path, as the requirements didn’t make sense to what I thought a high-caliber engineer to be. In 2015, I then watched an excellent PE get isolated into an unfavorable place organizationally (by the most senior engineer in our org who apparently didn’t like rivals). The excellent PE was ISP-ed in April of 2016. Meanwhile, a BS-ing mediocre talent who never finished projects and should have either been fired or remediated years ago was selected as a PE in March 2016.

That helped with my decision — I took the ERP in 2016.

A lot of PEs are just PowerPoint Engineers or even worse Political Engineer. Their only job is to go to various meetings and make noise.

Real PEs are jumping ship in droves.

I like Pat's optimism but as naysayer, I perceived this gimmick is to show what his leadership to patch the holes in Titanic
Although Intel continuous to lost its market share but it is still a big margin for them to loose
So, I don't think with the current Intel culture, 52B capital for US gov, IFS for chip shortage, all these could not return Intel to where it was. But maybe slow down the sinking of a big ship

The funny thing about handing out titles is only an incentive for politicians and powerpoint quacks. The small handful of real engineers left are not impressed by any fot his.

Some PEs were/are good but the ones leaving are all good and the standards of PEs has definitely reduced.
So the overall gene pool of Intel has definitely depleted!

Yes whats their TC like? Say in the Bay Area?

the funny thing is that this tactic only serves to retain the clowns and political operators while the technical ic's continue to jump ship

Title inflation. What's their TC?

What’s the difference btw "advisor to VP" and “TA to VP”?

It is a well known fact at Intel that the P in PE stands for "Political."

Completely agree. Too many PEs. Lot of directors too recently.

Intel is becoming more and even more laughable by the months.

Not everyone is a PE or laughable one. Knew some new and solid PE's left for another company shortly after becoming one. This was years ago.
