Pros

Very good culture, respecting each other (except some Bangalore folks). Lots of guidance from seniors. Encourages knowledge sharing, no office politics (personally).

Work-life balance.

Good benefits:

  • Free parking
  • Gym
  • Meal subsidies
  • Frequent freebies
  • Medical/insurance
  • Broadband
  • WFH equipment & setup subsidies (~3k MYR)
  • Quarterly/annual/performance bonus
  • Incentive for fully vaccinated individuals
Cons

Too specific job scope, which will narrow down your career opportunities when you decide to leave Intel. Too many in-house technologies/software used in daily jobs, making it difficult to gain hands-on experience with industry-standard tools.

Single-digit yearly increments, and the starting salary for fresh graduates is on the lower side.
