Pros: If you like an extremely structured work environment and a place where you can pretty much choose what you want to work on, Intel is the place for you. Of course, since it's work, it's not as glamorous as a trip to the Amazon, but it's a means to get there. If you keep in mind that work is just that, and not a path to enlightenment or nirvana, you will be okay here.
Cons: It is pseudo-hierarchical, like in the old days! :) What your manager thinks of you matters. Be his/her friend, and you will sail through. Protests, confrontations, and rebelling are not accepted and will have undesirable repercussions. Change is not natural here, and attempts at it look and feel forced.

Pros: Intel has excellent compensation. It tries to retain the best talent. Employees are able to move around jobs.
Cons: Depending on the group, there is no such thing as work-life balance. They will work you into the ground and use unfair and/or unknown metrics as layoff criteria without blinking.
