Intel Corporation reviews

There is excessive bureaucracy for certain processes, and the company's emphasis on safety regulations can be extreme at times. Teams and departments within IT tend to split into "silos", reducing opportunities for collaboration and career advancement. The company's great reputation allows it to pay lower salaries than lesser-known companies do.

Uninspiring, stressful, monotony. People follow stupid inefficient processes just because they were told to, instead of thinking for themselves. Some co-workers at your same level shouldn't be, and they lack the education/intelligence. It can be so dry. You aren't appreciated or recognized very often. The yearly review process doesn't reward based off of merit, it rewards whether you played the political game well--you are expected to create new tools, processes, or other extra work that isn't even real value-add, just to say you did something extra that year. There is a lot of obvious favoritism, and you can get ahead if you feel like digging deeper into the BS and swallowing it. Seniority is often prioritized over actual merit.
