Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

Virtuous Cycle

It was hilarious watching every exec and subexec (including Sr PEs and Fellows) in my group parrot "virtuous cycle" as soon as BK uttered it in 2016. BK himself never repeated it after 6 months. What a shameless sheep flock. Personally to me, it was an obvious mumbo jumbo that served to keep these worthless execs in their jobs for another day.

CBS Sunday Morning ran a segment about Intel 50th anniversary yesterday. The Intel spokesperson told the reporter that the company was built on Moore's Law and it has NEVER failed in 50 years! Another bold-faced lie from corporate HQ living with their heads in the sand.

OP , u obviously didn't understand...

I suggest u revisit Virtuous Cycle to make sense of it.

It's an update to Moore's law u culd say, 😊 😊 😊 to modernize it.

Wat's there to parrot about it ??

After 6 months of corporate wide induction to Virtuous Cycle - most would assume u understand it.

Do ppl continue to parrot about Moore's law - NOO!!!

After a while it's assumed that u r intelligent to know, understand, and b part of it as ur Intel DNA.

We all knew it was embarrassing mumbo jumbo from the very first exposure but our execs drank that koolaid with gusto. You know who you are.

Bain RCGs making $150K per year and billing Intel $325 per hour.

And worse wasting the time and attention of Intel senior leadership with the kinds of strategies that Intel can't execute
