Pros

Intel is a profitable company that will always be there with many sites and opportunities for transfer. Process technology is cutting edge and they obviously have the resources to compete with anyone. Intel will still be around in 20 years unlike a lot of other companies.

Cons

There is too much bureaucracy. Very cut-throat environment. Compensation is just ok but benefits and bonuses sort of make up for it. Work/Life balance is sometimes good and sometimes not so good especially at the end of projects. Promotions can be very political and subjective. Employee morale is just average compared to other places I have worked at.
