Pat is the best CEO
He's the one fixing the mess left over by previous CEOs. What better than to have a god believer man as CEO. He has always treated his co workers with utmost respect and considers them as family. Praise lord
Fabless vs Fabs
Nvidia - 2900 billion Broadcom - 780 billion AMD- 250 billion Qualcomm - 190 billion ARM - 149 billion Intel - 90 billion
A CEO that is worse than PG
The entire board of 23andMe simultaneously resigned because the CEO was relentlessly pushing a plan to take the company private. She still thinks that she is right and is seeking "independent" board members who agree with her. Much smaller scale... — read more
Why do you think VSP applicants were rejected?
I was, and I wanted it badly. I’m hearing a lot of folks were rejected (can’t claim it’s true, just heard about it many times already and can see it on boards). I’ve been here for ten years, just wanted my payout and to be done with Intel forever. I... — read more

Love to hear some suggestion I got an offer which is not great / expected Or continue in Intel. Where I like the work team and office culture. Please do give insight if any future CPM?

Does TSMC do product test or they only fab?

INTC Short Interest all time High
INTC short interest is at its peak, INTC sentiment seems very low however the Pastor Pat bible meme's I'm seeing on Reddit and Instagram are pretty hilarious. Question: Is Pat, ELT and the shareholders running an inside job for an internal takedown... — read more
The evolution of Intel
2014: A Great Place To Work 2019: A Place to Work 2024: A Place 2025: Two Places
Let’s assume that EOL for x86 is on the horizon
Where do we go from here? Can’t compete on processors, can’t compete on GPU/AI. Provide foundry services to who and for what? If the world is moving away from x86, what’s going to drive profitability in the future?
Retire/VSP == CW
Seems that most of the dept already budgeted for influx of ex-BB who comeback as CW. Cost saving on paper but continue to spend more…
Bet the whole farm on 18A…
Will Pastor P be right on 18A?
What was the security threat in RA4?
Does anyone have details on what actually happened, we got almost nothing out of passdown. I feel like the tension and stress right now especially going into October has a lot of folks on edge.
Any guess how many IFS folks (or %) will get impacted next year?
Given IFS will be a standalone company, their metrics will be much easier to compare vs TSMC. With all this staffing benchmarking going around, we know IFS is extremely obese and bloated, given their manufacturing product cost structure is about... — read more
TSMC Germany
Germany admin is desperate to save face and create the promised jobs. They are in talks to reallocate funds to TSMC so they can build 2nm fab. Pretty interesting that this becomes their opportunity.
For how long does the C-suite intend to stumble in the dark?
Until everything is beyond any hope? What are all these third-rate ideas they are coming up with? They will definitely end up running Intel to the ground, security concerns and US interests be damned. I mean, how did we get here, to this level of... — read more
No change to Foundry leadership, how will anything change?
At this point, until CEO, ELT and most of BoD is replaced, are we really going to see any change? Does anyone have any faith in these clowns? Not only do they su-k at strategizing, but also executing. They lie to us, the market and our customers. Why... — read more
Request an ISP
Has anyone discreetly asked their manager for an ISP. Anyone think it's a good idea.
Cut the cr-p. Modern A.I. is just repurposing GPUs
And Intel su-ks at GPUs
Is the night darkest before the dawn?
What it will be like the dawn finally comes up?
If Intel leaders say they will absolutely not do something...
It means it will be done, and likely is already in motion. Pat said a few years ago he will absolutely not split foundry. Ann said earlier this year TD will absolutely not have layoffs. Pat said Intel will not miss anymore opportunities, and we... — read more
Why INTC does not hold the jump
After hours closed above 22 and hit 23 as well. Now keeps dropping? :(
Sale of subsidiary does not require shareholder vote
This is just to buy time until some kind of deal comes into play. Foundry spin off rumor is slowly turning into reality.
Well, well, this did not age well
https://www.anandtech.com/show/21191/intel-reiterates-we-are-not-going-to-spin-off-ifs Pat must be deploying plan B
SATG News?
I'm a program manager in SATG. Any folks here who have news as to what is coming down the pike? We haven't heard anything from the leadership. Thank you.
Intel Foundry Becoming an Subsidiary
So this means to me that IFS needs to become profitable on its own? Right? I am trying to understand how it can a subsidiary without the massive amount of funding from mother Intel. I expect MASSIVE layoffs in TD / IFS. They need to find the... — read more
We are fa-k-ed guys
I heard targeted layoff will happen next year across the company:(
No sellout on Altera
Pat’s letter today made no mention selling off Altera. Guess the rumor was just rumor.

Big deal or won’t move the needle long term?
U.S. Awards Intel $3 Billion for Military Supply Program
I am current Military and I am deeply concerned by the decision to award this to Intel. While defending this nation we usually like our sh-t to work as advertised. I'm not seeing that out of anything Intel builds.
I will consider 10 weeks layoff notice as personal holidays
Only a fool would expect anyone to even show up for work, let alone actually work. I do have my personal professional ethics, but I’m also not a silly person. Corporations should be treated as they treat us - with disrespect, disregard, and no care... — read more

No roadmap for DCAI because no future/ROI?
Why is ELT so quite?
Any TD manager, can you confirm if G3, G5 engineers be affected in ISP?
Hearing that no skill matrix lower grades. Does this mean no ISP for G3 and G5 in TD?
The Current Recovery Plan Will Fail
I believe the current plan will fail. Let me preface that by saying that I have worked for Intel for 20+ years as a Equipment Technician in the fab. I took the buy out. Why do I believe it will fail? One - Pat's statements during the video make me... — read more
