Intel is full of useless managers. I would like to see the company cut most of them. However, I am convinced that this will not happen for a long time. I don't know how some of them generally justify their work here? It seems that some of them... — read more
Biggest mistakes
Intel could do much better if only it had better leadership. I'm just stating my opinion. Purely out of curiosity, what do you think are the biggest mistakes of this leadership?
Manufacturing future at Intel is futile, layoffs are a certainty
@1eng+1igqSZym Got to right All of this talk about layoff this or that and fire Middle management. It doesn’t matter. None of it does. Intel’s business model is broken from the simple fact that processor revenue cannot sustain leading edge fabs... — read more
Why AXG Graphics should continue to exist
I am in intel from few years . Hardworking .. done a lot to make this VCG dGFX working . But seeing all these BS around I am thinking why the VCG group exists. Why intel need LP, ST,RK like people ? Why ..Why Why ? Just write off these VPs and... — read more
TSMC
TSMC extended an offer to me, I had to beg for promotion at Intel.
Suggestion: 5000 managers and VPs
Layoff 5000 managers and VPs and flatten org. Do this proactively before it is too late and you are forced to do it
Being laid off close to retirement
Is Intel known for laying people off close to retirement? I know IBM is known for this but somebody told me recently that Intel's been doing the same thing, just not at the same scale. I'm nowhere near retirement, I'm just curious if this is... — read more
Any new rumors about cuts?
I'm just checking to see if anyone has heard anything about cuts. Our manager has been a bit more nervous than usual lately and the atmosphere is tense.
any idea
All senior people and RCGs come to me asking for help. I am not getting a promotion or grade level I desire. what should I do?
Larribee, ARC... history repeats itself!
The Board should get the AXE. Years and years of failed leadership, and the buck stops with them!
Is Pat delusional?
AMD in the rear view mirror… https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pucOm5StP3s&feature=youtu.be This guy is leading Intel? Really?
Billions lost, people will be the final costt
First loss in decades! Billions upon billions in CapEx to come! Market share evaporation as AMD eats away at Intel’s high margin server. Google, Amazon and others designing their own Apple like custom CPU. GPU bleeds billions and will be the... — read more
Half of Intel is redundant
Just collecting paycheck for doing empty ARs. Other than factory workers and TD where actual work happens and where everyone has a well defined role, the rest of the company is filled with freeloaders. VPs galore - people with 10 direct reports are... — read more
intel culture
Fake it until you make it. Double you salary by hiring your wife, discourage hard workers who actually contribute as they might compete against you. Powerpoint > deliverables. Hang on until the project is canceled and rinse and repeat.
TSMC culture
Chiang: I firmly believe this is one of the really important reasons why TSMC succeeded. It's culture. If equipment went down, because equipment depreciation cost was so high, you really want to run your equipment 24 hours a day. In United States, if... — read more
New people are still joining

Jon Peddie on Intel’s dGPU effort
“Intel’s results with dGPUs in the consumer space have been an embarrassment” … “Not only is that a bewildering investment strategy, but it’s also an embarrassment.” https://www.jonpeddie.com/editorials/will-axg-survive-gelsingers-axe Yet another... — read more
CHIPS Act!
As CHIPS Act gets signed into law, INTC stock hits a new 5-year low. Make no mistake, CHIPS Act is just a taxpayer-funded govt. bail-out for these companies, just like the banks and carmakers were bailed out 12 years ago.
Why Intel has a sloppy strategy for retaining talent?
For the past few quarters, great talents are leaving in droves. Some for better offer, some because of unending frustrations. Management spent 0 effort retaining talent until its too late and spent the last focal bribing the remaining talents to not... — read more

Too many layers of management
I think that almost everyone here agrees that there are too many layers of management. It impedes organizational growth and change. It explains demotivated employees and staff turnover. Do you think it is possible that Intel will become less top... — read more

Culture at other companies
I’m wondering do other companies have all these meetings to align stuff? Do people keep having the same conversations multiple times?
Intel paid counselors report back to Intel HR
No matter what they tell you about counselor counselee privilege , they are in Intel's pocket. These dishonest quacks send reports to Intel for each person they talk to. They also communicate with Intel hr informally (calls, meetings without minutes... — read more

Pro-tip: Intel HR can read what you type in the chat box
When you contact the HR, their chat application is designed so that they can read whatever you are typing. Deception is not the exception, for Intel HR it is a rule.
Just joined IFS but...
New hire. Just joined IFS. G10. There is literally no work to do. It is a made up role. Honestly disappointed and actually terrified that I made the wrong call joining Intel and especially IFS. They are just a bunch of people strategizing. Nobody... — read more

PG has one of the highest approval ratings on Glassdoor

Pat should be fired - IDM model simply doesn’t work anymore
If anyone at the Board is listening: Pat had his chance. Instead of fixing what was broken when he joined, he prioritized chips act. ELT is filled with the same losers. The lady running TD is way in over her head.
The bulk of the blame belongs UP TOP!
Yes, that's right! The Board Members that bring on the failing CEOS one after another is the cause for Intel's fall from once up high. Failure after failure, missed opportunity after missed opportunity, it can no longer chalk it up to a bad streak... — read more
