"Intel is a great company to work with. Excellent work life balance. Work is pretty relaxed. Lot of exiting work to do. Managers here are very cool (although different people will have very different experiences). It does have the downfalls of any big company like internal politics and difficult to move up. Also Folsom is a wonderful place to live, hardly any traffic, cheap housing."

Administrative Assistant

"Unsuccessful compared to other companies this size. Look at the share price."

What do you like about working at Intel?

"the compensation and technology is adequate for the job required."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Emphasize your singleness, if you have a partner flaunt it and if you're gay, let them know somehow you'll get aboard much quicker."

What don't you like about working at Intel?

"arrogance is rampant, these people think they're curing cancer; and alternative lifestyle intensely promoted, those with a family beware and feel pressured especially regarding religion. Only place I've ever worked where I and others were approached regarding their religion during the Pope's election (incredibly anti-Catholic workplace), workers debating marriage in the breakrooms and co-workers will go into your purse and snoop even when it's in a drawer."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"ask personal questions that are legal during the hiring process and be transparent about your values as a company. If you want only gay and single employees, promote your website as such."
