Your personal work space....gone.
Competent co-workers are nearly all gone.
Keychains with die embedded in lucite. Been gone for 30 years. Quarterlies with shrimp and open bar.
When was the last time anybody received a project T-shirt?
Well, to be fair, complaining about a lack of extrinsic motivation is somewhat whiny when the intrinsic motivation has been completely destroyed as well. It's like "Hey, my job s---s, my manager s---s, his manager s---s and his manager s---s as well. But if I had free access to a fitness center, that would be pretty rad."
HR trolling this thread making it seem like complaining about ever shrinking benefits is whining. HR trolls are probably CWs or interns and don't have a flippin clue
Last benefit to go your paycheck, next ACT coming soon to your local intel group!
Whaaaaaaa. Whaaaaaaaaa.
Pension plan is gone
Less green badges to do my sh-- so I can sit in the cafe and drink my free coffee and bull sh-- with coworkers.
Plaques have been gone a long, long time. It wasn't so much of a cost savings (although it did save money), but more a decisions the admins made about not doing it anymore. We saw way too many still sitting in the boxes on desks. A lot of people didn't care much about them. I was one of the admins that voted we stop due to that and saving the material. I figured we could save a lot of trees. Most people only cared about the money anyway.
But I will tell you of a cost savings that got the admins all in an uproar. One day we came in to find all the wall clocks gone. We were like... 'Where did they go?". We looked into it and told it was a cost savings of batteries (WTF?!?!) and the man hours to change them annually. We told them to put them back and we'd be responsible for the battery changing. LOL They did but that was WAY before TW3. It was back in the SET days. Once TW3 hit they were gone forever. I didn't argue at that point because I didn't give a sh*t anymore. I just wanted out. I was so sick and tired of all the BS.
Conferences like DTTC, IDF cancelled, probably never to come again.
SSL3/5 only for grades 6 and below, pretty much a pass/fail grade at the moment.

You trapped slavaes in Folsom, Hillsboro and others are s---ers. The rest are idiots to stay.
But if you stay, got free fruit and sugar drinks and great health care as we work you stupid dogs.
BK and executives all cashing out and will enjoy once in a lifetime at Olympics on Intel laidfoff workers back.
GPTW!
Haha. Yes intel is full of overpaid unskilled whiners. Myself and all of my underpaid skilled friends in intel were all gone in the past two years. We all want to see those unskilled, especially those with no ethic, managers get fired someday.
Just keep whining and keep making your wish lists.
You're all still overpaid whiners.
pension, SERMA, cuts in RSU awards
Job safety eliminated.
Joy of work killed.
Trust in management reduced to zero.
Sanity in annual rating process completely gone.

Oh wait, you meant benefits? Yea, let's whine that the SPP was reduced to 5%, because that is more important than the points above.
ISMC killed
GPTW eliminated
