Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

Combo of non-technical and mediocre management

Every company, big ones in particular have their problems and headaches. But Intel is unique in that sense, the way they operated over the last decade.

It is led totally by wholly nontechnical and full mediocre management who call the shots.

These people come up at public events or internal meetings, or team meetings and whatever, start talking about process, design, AI, data, machine learning, automation, robots, autonomous vehicles, crypto and what not. But they don't have the slightest idea about it and they don't even know at all what they are talking about.

But.... They lead and dictate the tech teams and decide what and most important, how everything should be done.

So..... Intel is here as it deserves to be.....

It’s a very weird culture when you think of it. It’s like co. has been on Tesla auto pilot for decades. He-l of a franchise that takes long time to spiral into the dirt.

Intel ELT went all-in with non-technical MBA management backed up by the TA system… the end result is bloviating charlatans running the show with corrupt snake oil salesmen whispering in their ear. Total clown show.

Right and if you look at the ELT, there is almost 100% correlation between DEI hires and lack of industry experience or successful track record. Of course, that doesn't prove causality, but if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it probably is a duck.

If Intel leadership needs a look in the mirror to correct itself, it will do well to monitor this board regularly. This is free, yet valuable, correctional feedback, which is worth millions over those $M consultants from Bane, McCrinky and Delusionette.

Strangely enough, when hire a person to meet your diversity goal instead of hiring the most-qualified person, you sometimes end up with substandard job performance.

Don’t understand comments about annual reviews. Been with the company when we had them and since we transitioned to quarterly feed back. Pay is typically an annual thing. Could be reference to annual survey?

Notjust referencing this thread, seen it elsewhere too.

Makes me wonder about the comments if people are at Intel and don’t cimprehend there is no annual review and has not been for a few years.

If people are commenting about annual reviews in connection with issues Intel has,, do they need to hold up a mirror before casting stones?

@tpj+1jLjJhR7 which annual reviews? And you think the terrible management will self-deselect? Because that's the remedial step that clearly needs to be taken

The whole point of annual reviews is to provide this valuable feedback to the management, so that remedial steps are taken and not wait for the company to tank.

Folks are being hired and promoted for the wrong reasons. Many have little to no science background and these people are directing resources. To say the least, it's not working out well.
