Intel

Intel has a very good reputation. As the No. 1 chipmaker, Intel has strong resources (money and people) in the R&D section, and thus generates many excellent products, including software products, for example IPP and the Intel compiler. Most managers are pretty flexible about work times as long as you finish your jobs.

You need to work very hard, but sometimes you did not get enough attention (recognition and promotion) if your job was not in a high-profile area.

Also, Intel does have monopolistic behaviors in giving rebates based on percentage instead of volume for customers during its competition with AMD.

Should give more attention to the competition from AMD.
