Pretty on the outside
Pretty on the outside
The yearly and quarterly bonuses are a nice benefit.
Many of the other worker bees are nice and easy to work with.
The free fruit and sodas/coffee are a nice touch.
Too much tribal knowledge, acronyms, etc.
Documentation storage (reference manuals, etc.) is inconsistent and stored across different sites. Finding information about what you are working on is very difficult.
Many people in the PC CPU groups are very condescending towards other groups. Way too many managers and not enough contributors.
Teams are spread globally, so that means your work day can span from 5 AM to 10 PM. Underfunded, understaffed, aggressive schedules that are micromanaged by several managers not even in your chain of command.
The facility itself: Nice covered parking garage, but overcrowded. Not enough bathrooms for the number of employees (not exaggerating, it's bad). The cafe is very disappointing.
Intel needs to do major house cleaning of management, starting with BK and down. Too many good contributors were let go.
