A director in intel RTD telling an employee in grade 7 that he/she not eligible to be promoted to grade 8 because he/she needs to do improvement on behavioral aspect. There has not been any reasonable complaint about the employee to HR about employee's behavior. Rather the employee has been always hailed by most internal customers and is regarded as a technical expert by director and manager's own words. The employee thinks it is because the director is not himself organized, became director because there was void and is not otherwise eligible, does not like getting challenged, is very random in decision making, does not have respect for others, is authorative, and also do not have any development plan for the employees.

What are the options the employee have?#semiconductor #jobs #intel

    If the director can't spell out concrete instances when the engineer's behavior was not up to expectations and explain what the correct behavior should have been then he is full of shit. He dislikes the engineer and is holding the promo for his favorites. Common at Intel.

    GTFO is the best option. Besides G7 to G8 is not a big deal. You can get a much larger hike in your TC by switching to FAANG.

    What are the options for someone with semiconductor industry background in FAANG?

      Apple is typically the best option. Facebook and Google also have HW positions but they are not the same tier as their SW jobs. Nvidia is also a good option. In terms of pay, my experience and observation is that Apple = Fb > Nvidia > Google > Amazon > Intel for HW jobs.

      qaCB86, is exactly spot on. Apple is best option if trying to leave Intel.

    All that is just another way of saying this person is not politically loyal to management.

    How long does one typically stay at G7? And what factors decide the promotion to G8?
