"I joined the CAD tools development group as an intern. It was quite fascinating to know the complexities involved in developing a CAD application. The people working in my team and the neighboring team were really cool and everyone in there breaths Moore's law. They were really helpful and patiently answered every question that I asked."

"Intel is a very company to work with. But it lacks the tradition to develop ground breaking products."

"I worked at Intel from 2010 to 2014. My career is in management, but, unfortunately, I worked with a manager and skip-level manager who were both unethical and who demoted me into an engineering role. Ethics seem to be a long-term problem at Intel. The company paid out $1.25 billion to AMD for anti-competitive practices during my brief tenure at the company. In the case of my career at the company, I carefully negotiated my salary for weeks prior to joining the company. Following the completed negotiations, my managers simply ignored everything and paid me 60% of the agreed upon salary. Two painful years later, during a transition into a management role, my skip-level manager put it in writing that if ever I achieved a managerial role at the company, he would personally see to it that I was fired. I resigned."

"The good: Ability to work on cutting edge technology pushing the boundary of computing. The Work can be very interesting, unsolved problems. Participate/contribute to academia. The bad: Workplace could use a few upgrades. Need to "clean house." Some teams can work more efficiently with less people. Some people shoulder a lot more weight than others."

"I have worked for almost 4 years in the company and it is a great company to work. The main problem is that there is no place for innovation in software."

"Intel is a great company!"
