Pros: 1. Really good work-life balance. The manager, mentor, and the entire team are pretty understanding. 2. You get to work on the latest technologies in ML deployment.

Cons: 1. The work is pretty easy if you've worked on containers before. 2. Overwhelming information for someone who has no experience of working in a big company.

Pros: Learning. You will learn SO MUCH, it will be hard to grasp. You choose how certified you really want to be. But that doesn't mean training is ALWAYS happening. You get rewarded for how much you push.

Cons: Intel has been very focused recently on things I will not elaborate on due to NDA. I will say, again, you get what you give at Intel.

Pros: Great benefits, onsite gym/cafe, and free fruit, tea, and soda. Co-workers are great. It's easy to move to other positions. Working cross-departmentally was great.

Cons: Lots of managers have no idea of what they are doing, let alone manage people. At least in my group I worked for, all they cared about was the numbers and how to present them so it made them look good. Intel hires people mostly based on their degree. When the new CEO took over, things started to change downhill. The company sold off potential successful groups and kept sticking to its bread and butter: their manufacturing capability. The stock purchase program got cut in half, health plans changed, and bonuses changed.
