Isn't it kind of mean-spirited and divisive to imply that people are mentally unwell for practicing religious beliefs of their choice? Would you still be saying that if he was Muslim, Jewish, or Hindu?

The current CEO was supposed to be a down to earth, technical, no bureaucracy guy as well.
so he's getting knifed after 6 months and Intel will be in even worse shape?

Practicing a religion in your own, and asking your employees to practice it are two very different things
Am I misunderstanding some aspect of this? Was Pat demanding rather than asking or something like that?
If he wants to succeed, he will need to reconsistute the board. That's a tough one since they appointed him, but otherwise it won't work. The type of transformation Intel needs to go through won't withstand a myopic, short term oriented bureaucracy.
What does he bring over Pat or Michelle?

> If he wants to succeed, he will need to reconsistute the board. Intel is a publicly listed company.

Tan's complaints seem to be the same ones I read here over and over from ex-employees, so hopefully he can actually turn it around.

Turning a ship the size of Intel is a super power in it's own right. Especially one with such a large entrenched bureaucracy as Intel has.
Politics aside for a moment - we're seeing the death bellows of many large, entrenched bureaucracies right now with DOGE - the main difference is the fight is in full public view instead of behind closed doors. We can only imagine and speculate at the resistance Pat and others met while trying to change Intel's course.
The infamous Oscar Wilde quote is very applicable: "The bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy." - Ever large bureaucracy eventually exists largely to preserve itself. This is why it is so incredibly difficult to reduce the size of a bureaucracy. Every member is convinced the organization will fail tomorrow if they are let go today, and every member fights/resists any and all changes that threaten their bureaucracy and the status quo.
Best of luck to Tan - I truly hope they succeed where many have failed at Intel. AMD needs a healthy Intel to drive motivation and competition. The world will be watching.

As a straight up atheist if pushed to make a decision, I'd probably participate. The prayer part id probably just interpret as picking an aspect of this news to explicitly make present in my mind for the day.
