Questions
A windowless room contains three identical light fixtures, each containing an identical light bulb or light globe.
Each light is connected to one of three switches outside of the room.
Each bulb is switched off at present.
You are outside the room, and the door is closed.
Before opening the door, you may play around with the light switches as many times as you like. But once you've opened the door, you may no longer touch a switch.
After this, you go into the room and examine the lights. How can you tell which switch goes to which light?

Intel Work Experiences
- 4.0Growth Then DeclineSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeBengaluru, Karnataka, IndiaApril 25, 2024Pros: It was a very good company in terms of growth.Cons: Not up to the mark now.
- 5.0It's really a great place to work!Software Engineer • Former EmployeeShanghai, Shanghai, ChinaSeptember 26, 2011Pros: The work environment is great, and the relationship between colleagues is great. I've made many friends there. People are more care about technical matters and less about politics, at least in the Opensource Technology Center. I am very proud to work there with these great people and receive recognition for my work. I liked the place very much.Cons: The salary is not competitive with some junior positions, and getting promoted is hard and requires a lot of time. As my first job, I really appreciate Intel, but I am able to find much better work with the skills learned at Intel, compared to the salary there. Even though, I still love this place, where I spent the first 4 years of my career.
- 4.0Good and stable job if you can stand corporate cultureSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeGdańsk, PolandJanuary 29, 2019Pros: Stability, good remuneration (if you are able to negotiate one at the start), access to some new technologies (albeit Intel-only, meaning not much usable in a different work environment), many intelligent and knowledgeable people, and some ability to change (choose) projects.Cons: Limited career possibilities in a technical path if you're not going to move to the US. Limited pay rise. Feeling like a "cog in a machine" where not much really depends on your effectiveness, even your bonus.
