Intel Corporation reviews

Meritocracy in theory only Too many middle managers intent on building fiefdoms and competing with each other Many products and programs (Viiv, Intel WebOutfitter Svc, etc.) are neither strategically smart or well-planned or executed Too much job redundancy across groups and divisions Drab gray walls and cubicles You're at the mercy of your manager You must always manage up If you want work/life balance, be prepared to give up career advancement. Not all managers embrace work/life balance, especially those with unemployed spouses.

Tremendous pressure when projects don't meet requirements or schedules slip.
