Pros: A very good company with good work-life balance.

Cons: Low salary compared to other companies.

Pros: A relatively stable workplace. Intel also provides a pretty good work-life balance and allows working from home and taking your vacation when you wish. Career-wise, you can always take a new direction inside the company and start with a brand new job without actually starting over. People are usually very nice and keen to help each other; it is not a very competitive place, in a good way mostly. Additionally, management is accessible – you can talk to anyone. Intel has recently made its move towards servers and IoT, and also released many of its employees. I believe that this was a smart move.

Cons: The work itself felt very disconnected from the end-product, and therefore, motivation was low. Creativity is not encouraged; you do your job, you finish it, and you go home. The job got quite boring after a while. Professionally, it feels like a mess. Software tools are being used while nobody knows where they came from; it is all patched up, and progress is hard to be made. Workflows are usually very unstable. Culture-wise, Intel is a huge corporate which is trying to meet the lowest common denominator. In such a workplace, that would be a too common and boring denominator. The atmosphere at the office is not much fun.

Pros: Employees are self-motivated, fostering a good work culture with excellent relationships between staff. We utilize cutting-edge technology.

Cons: Big company, with a lot of people. Sometimes you can get lost in the crowd. The key is to stand out by contributing to the team/group.
