Pros

There are a lot of smart people at Intel. The projects are cutting-edge and interesting. Intel provides a library of knowledge to get up to speed. They provide great benefits and work balance (sponsors a lot of fun events for employees to attend). Brand recognition. Good future outlook for the company.

Cons

Much of your experience at Intel will depend on which teams you work with. I was blessed to have a great team who bring enthusiasm and ideas to work everyday. I have heard completely opposite things about other teams. There is a lot of process -- meetings, deadlines, presentations, logistics. A lot of redundant work goes around in the company. Heard promotion process was not as fair as it should be... depends a lot on your manager and what projects you work on in order to move up.

Advice to Senior Management

Reduce the process, reduce redundant work, promote creativity and innovation.
