Intel

As an MT (Manufacturing Technician) on the Development side of TMG, I can say the compressed work hours offer sufficient work-life balance given the number of days off to do whatever else you want with your life.

Add vacation time and paid absences to that, and you have more than enough "free time" to be the envy of many working people around the world.

Overall, the work environment is safe and clean (obviously).

If you are in the lower echelon of pay grade, better pay and raises may be something left to be desired.

Focal and reviews are rather dubious.

Bonuses and other perks aside from corporate EBs are a joke.

Engineering dictates, period.

Every year seems the importance of internally trained skilled technicians is being less valued and deemed irrelevant and obsolete, as they are being treated more like factory operators since Intel relies more on contracted Field Service Specialists.

Advocates a lot of values that made the company what it is, but in recent years does not practice what it tries to preach.

Top executives seem to lack in leading by example (hence lawsuits in public news).

Go back to the roots and value your employees at the employee level.

Stop turning into the corporate run "machine" that's left to run on its own.
