Pros: Talented engineers and people who want the company to succeed.

Cons: At times, there are long hours to get the job done. Every review cycle, someone must get a 0% raise or 0% stock.

Pros: Great place to work with very intelligent engineers working on cutting-edge technology. You will always have challenging work.

Cons: Work-life balance is sometimes skewed. There are times you will be putting in 50+ hours a week, and there is always ample work to be completed. It seems like people want the work done now.

Pros: You can give time to your family as needed.

Cons: The company has laid off more than 40,000 people in just one year. This is unbelievable, but true. As an insider and employee of Intel, I can clearly see that Intel is a sinking ship right now, and there is no way it can come out of that. The company might file bankruptcy anytime in the next year or two. Compensation and benefits packages are very low, and they stopped raising salaries last year. Only a few people are getting some sort of raise. Upper management is filled with too many Indian people, as a result, they only prefer to hire more Indians, which is contradictory to the diversity and inclusion culture of the company. Currently, any other company in the USA is doing way better in comparison to Intel.
