100 Intellians vs 1 Gorilla

I think this forum seems to think that if 100 Intellians are having trouble with the Gorilla then 75 would be more “lean and mean” and hence have a better chance Of course we all know the punchline is having the right systems, capital, and... — read more 

Factory Issues

I really hope this doesn't affect the factory technicians again. They are already at skeleton crew numbers and struggling to keep up with the holes the last wave of layoffs left in staffing.

What if

We held a contest to see what twelve year old could best run the company and went with the worst choice?

Consultants

Let's not trust the people that do the work. Let's let senior leaders hire expensive consultants to tell them that leadership made a mess. So many people fell forward into roles as Directors with no experience tanking teams and initiatives. Their... — read more 

Lip-Bu Tan = Pow! Pow! (Revisited)

Original: For all those Pat haters still at Intel... you'll be happy to see Tan back. After all, he resigned because he thought Pat's cuts were too tame, and not enough. So now he has carte blanche to "pow-pow" as many people as he wants... — read more 

Intel Foundry Direct Connect 2025 DOG

We have no idea why but here's a random robot dog that can find an overheated industrial motor. Yay. No relation to foundry but it's got an Intel sticker on it. WTF was that all about???

Can we wrap layoffs fast this time please?

Last time with the long august announcement to mid-october wrap was bad for morale (we still haven't recovered) and made management look inept. In the name of One Intel can we not spend months wondering which coworkers are the "deadwood" this time? — read more 

We're watching you LBT!

An RTO to spread culture and encourage collaboration and an RTO to encourage attrition don't look remotely like each other, and right now what you're doing looks very much like the latter. And that creates an adversarial relationship between... — read more 

LBT can't turn Intel around

Has anyone here read "Who Says Elephants Can't Dance" ? Fascinating book. I'm somewhat paraphrasing, but fix the balance sheet stop all forms of bleeding get people inside and outside the company to believe in the turnaround (and hey Pat... — read more 

Q2 SMG QGS

What kind of garbage. These people hate their employees. A whole segment on gleefully talking about their own careers LEAVING Intel? While talking about cutting people one minute beforehand? GARBAGE TRASH

Be Honest

Why are you still at Intel? Out of all of the possible companies in the world…why stay at one that has so many problems with no easy or clear solutions? Just scanning this board, there are complaints about RTO Bad managers Poor facilities and... — read more 

Lip-Bu - The Silent CEO

Walk silently and carry a big stick epitomizes LB’s CEO style to a T. Deminimis info on layoffs and the loud crack of the whip that screams “Get To Work!” (As if that’s not what we’ve been doing). Perhaps LBT doesn’t want to scare the sheep, or the... — read more 

What about attrition and those retiring?

Why are people so convinced that 20k will be laid off? Isn’t it more realistic that, as the reduction in force plays out over the coming months, that number will also include people who leave voluntarily or retire? I’m more worried about them making... — read more 

Will have to quit my side hustle if I RTO...

Been making good money working a side hustle alongside my regular job for the past 2 years. I've optimized my workflow to the point where I can get both done in a 8hr shift, so it's not hurting my productivity. With RTO, I cannot continue this... — read more 

Big Gumption Energy

It's fine behind closed doors and with the mask on anonymity to express all the pessimism's -- get them off your chest! -- but in front of people esp. in front of managers you need Big Gumption Energy. WE CAN DO IT! LBT was KIDDING when he said... — read more 

And it is gone

Oh i did not know how much i would miss my beloved company stock ticker on the company page - now that it is not there anymore feels like…

Not ready for RTO

I loved the WFH policy but not for the reasons you may think. I never stopped coming into the office. I loved the peace and quiet, easy parking, near empty cafes, lack of interruptions at my cube, and the general low stress environment. I'm not at... — read more 

It’s easy to spin optimism

But it’s apparently hard to understand that Intel potentially turning things around would mean nothing to those who lose their jobs in the process. And how can anyone be optimistic when we don’t even know who will be let go? It could be any of us... — read more 

Intel will win! Intel is winning!

There is a lot of negativity in here, and some of it is deserved. However, keep in mind that most of the negative things you are reading is fake news likely created by AMD people and the very bitter ACT layoff class. It has no basis of reality. Lets... — read more
