Intel clearly is a "great place to work."

Pros

8-week sabbaticals every 7 years, free coffee, soda, and fruit.

Wonderful "perks" like tickets to sporting events or live shows.

They pay us well, and some of us are lucky enough to work in new, modern workspaces.

Plus, they have things like foosball tables and massage chairs when you need to take a break.

Did I mention a corporate jet that all US employees can take?

Cons

Intel has a tendency to take over your life. It's a global company, and we have peers all across the globe. This means late-night or early-morning meetings. Travel is not easy, so it can mean some day trips that start at 5 a.m. and end at 8 p.m. Though you do get to sleep in your own bed.

Advice to Management

Continue to work on your "Great Place to Work" offerings; it's working.

It's clearly a different company than it was 5 years ago. The little perks add up and make it a workplace many of us never want to leave.
