Intel

I think that the growth opportunities, if you really want to achieve a specific level (especially on the technical side), are always possible to get. Sometimes you have to fight with politics and bureaucracy, but if you really want to get something, you have a good opportunity to get it.

There are a lot of political games because the company tends to compensate individual achievement over the group or division. So everybody is worried and fighting about how to get his/her own successful personal project, no matter if you have to step over a colleague. That is, for me, the worst part of working for Intel.

To focus on the big picture, on the global achievement. Don't put teams to fight against each other; try to compensate the whole team.
