The pandemic has brought many new ideas and ways of living into focus. Perhaps companies who do not adapt to this new reality may be doomed. There is a lot more global opportunities now for people living anywhere they want. Force people to commute... — read more 

PG would be wise to use IQA guidelines and a basic SAM-LITE survey to examine broadly and deeply, across the entire company to see what’s still good and where changes need to be made. Go back to the original Intel Values - a great place to start... — read more

Retired after 30 yrs. Here's my point: Andy Grove was everything you wanted in a CEO: 1) R&D for new technology aka Microprocessors, 2) TMG Manufacturing excellence aka fab process, 3) OpX aka no useless employees and 4) Marketing i.e. when Andy... — read more 

As a retired Intel supplier (30 years) I witnessed so much dishonesty, arrogance, and corruption. Dealing with AMD and TSMC was always a straightforward effort. But more important, when calling on Intel, was to bow and sc-ape and tell all the... — read more

Wow 750 million Spec by OMAR in health Care. Brown is always Green!

Looks like he posted new tweets about how he thought Larrabee was a c-ap GPU. Important to know Larrabee was spear headed by Pat https://twitter.com/Rajaontheedge What's his end game?

Hey everyone! It's safe now to come on back. Need some real talent again! https://www.anandtech.com/show/16438/new-intel-ceo-making-waves-rehiring-retired-cpu-architects

Not sure if I should stay or go. If I do choose to go, will I be leaving behind job security and good benefits and regret it later? Or is that just a mirage and would I be better off building real marketable skills at other companies?

All those of us who have been ISP’ed in 2016, is there anyway we can communicate to the new CEO to consider lifting this rehire ban. A lot of qualified people would like to rejoin intel but this clause is just making this impossible. May be Pat... — read more 

Pat seems to be the man, but sadly he arrives too late after BK and BS, his day was when he was passed over for BK, all was lost in those wasted years. If you know, you can wish and pray and hope. But the only way Intel gets back is if both TSMC... — read more

Which of the current leaders will Pat trust to Fix Intel? Will any former leaders be brought back?

Intel thought they were supreme and that the layed-off employees will not be allowed to return though they had one stock-level 4. Now the table has turned and there is a brain drain at Intel. Employees far less deserving then the ones layed-off are... — read more

ELT in BS era has about 24 VPs. Will Pat have a smaller compact leadership team? Will Pat reduce the VP overhead?

Let’s use this thread to name all the managers who have been pulling Intel down. Who were managers but not leaders. Managers who did more politics than useful work. Managers who did nepotism.

Damn. This guy has been a big failure. Intel will be in no better shape. Why the fuhk is he given this position when he couldn’t even succeed at a lower position? Intel is too desperate. And it’s not helping.

Take it from a VMware employee of ten years, Pat is not a solution to your problems. He had plenty of time to fix things here and what happened? Just look at the state of VMware currently and tell me if you think it's a reflection of good leadership... — read more

Here's a fun fact (and I suspect shows what a loser I am :-)) Pat Gelsinger and I were colleagues at Intel in the early 80's. We both worked in what was called "MIPO" (Microprocessor Operation) but I was in Systems Validation and he was on the... — read more

Honest question. Arguably, Jim had more technical street cred and gave it straight. Unless Pat targets management, I don't see how anything can turn around within 3-4 years.

worked with Pat back in the golden days... He's a good guy, knows his stuff....lots of cleaning house to do...good luck Pat!

I blame him, and the board. Don't mean to disrespect the dead, but if he didn't set things up for BK then Gelsinger would've been here all along. At the time the talk was about Larrabee's failure but that was set up to fail in the beginning, and... — read more

INTC goes up 13% VMware down 5%. It's a good start. But too late for me, leaving Intel soon. Good luck to the rest. Hope Pat rehauls the comp structure.
