Great engineers, where are they now?
Many great engineers used to work here. Some of the best experts in their field have worked at Intel. But how many of these engineers are still here? I'm afraid very little. Unfortunately, I think that those who still remain at Intel will soon be... — read more
Fanatical or Irrational

I'm not actively looking, but I'd be happy to leave with proper incentive
