Intel

Good work-life balance if you want it.

Intel made me an offer at a higher grade and then switched it when I joined.

Confronted manager about it and was told there was nothing he could do.

Then I switched teams, which led to a different title with more pay. A couple of months later, HR switched the title back to lower pay.

My manager only changed the title back AFTER focal.

The pay in Oregon is terrible, and there is no career advancement.

There is no incentive to take initiative and do more than what's asked.

Expect reorgs at least once a year.

Intel is slowly cutting benefits:

• No GPTW
• No snacks on Fridays
• 401k matching isn't what it used to be
• Changed RSU allocation to shortchange you

Intel can't make any headway into new areas; AI/5G/SSDs are all failures.

Cut the dead weight: groups, employees, and most importantly, worthless managers. Why do we have so many VPs?

Get rid of Murthy; he's not even worth a grade 5 salary.
