Pros

Good benefits if you work hard. Intel tried very hard to maintain the number of employees during downcycles so that people do not lose their jobs. Therefore, they are a very stable company to work for, especially in manufacturing.

There are good managers as well as bad, but good managers are very understanding with employees who want to maintain a life as well as those who want to work hard for the company.

Cons

It can be difficult to get an engineering job if you are a technician; Intel seems reluctant to hire from within.

Feedback is sometimes hard to come by, but that is up to the discretion of management.

Advice to Management

Look internally for people that have worked hard for their degree while working hard for the company.

They appreciate their degree more than those that just went to college and got their job straight out of college.
