Pros

the chance to work for a technology market leader, brand recognition, international travel opportunities, incredible internal resources.

Cons

very very political, your boss better love you or you will be the first to go. Who can suck up the best ends up staying there longer. There are major differences between "field sales" and working in the "factory" which is referred to as a "cesspool". Intel is a very "what have you done for me lately" place. Not even an "exceeds expectations" on your last Focal review will prevent you from being laid off. If you are in the wrong place, wrong division at the wrong time you can lose your job without any advance warning. But you can be an average or below average performing employee in the right division (cpu or silicon related) and can skate by for years under the radar.

Pros

It's great to work for a company on the leading edge of technology. Risk taking is rewarded even if the risk fails. Work/life balance is a priority and encouraged at all levels. Communication from all levels of management is excellent. It really is ok to question the decisions and motives of Sr. Management and we have open forums to do just that.

Cons

Although they say they encourage teamwork, the process for salary increases/stock is based on individual performance and managers compare us to our peers performance, which can be very subjective. Retirement benefits are nonexistant. If you're and engineer it's a great place to advance, if your not it's just a good place to work.

Pros

Intel is a great place to work. It is a world leader and there is great fexibility at work. Compensation can be very good if you care to negotiate while joining and they need you badly enough. There is no deferential treatment; the CEO to the RCG - all sit in similar cubes and are provided the same resources.

Cons

Values hard to practise in reality. The real value of the very elaborate process of rating and ranking employees during focal is questionable. But I suppose that is true in all companies of that size. I have seen disgruntled employes in several groups who were unhappy about their dead end jobs. Once again, I think this is true for all big companies. It is not possible for everyone to have a spectacular growth path.
