Krzanich is stepping down due to a past consensual relationship with an Intel employee and the company's internal investigation has confirmed a violation of their company non-fraternization policies.

Sounds like a pretty weak cover story to me.

Sounds like a pretty weak cover story to me.

Since no other manager is involved, this is a relationship with a "lesser" employee. Which does cast some shade on the consensuality of the affair.

Ridiculous, if it is as described. Who else is the CEO of a multi-billion-dollar company supposed to fraternize with? The women of his imagination? The women of his nonexistent hobbies? The competitors?

There has to be a balance to strike between the basic fact that the workplace is the largest single non-generic source of marriage-quality relationships, and the fact that such relationships can become compromising.

Businness customers, of course. Didn't you read the memo?

Yes, people shouldn't be allowed to look for their future partners in the workplace. /sarcasm off

What a clown's world.

He tried to push the release of xf86-video-intel 3.0 and finally gave up.

It's generally not a good idea even if we disregard company productivity.

Statistically most relations end badly, there is high chances of being stuck with your ex-partner on the workplace. Or worse, multiple ex-partners. Do you really want to risk that?

If you (not directed at anyone in this thread) cannot develop friendly relationship with your ex-partner, there is something wrong with you and it doesn't matter whether you look for a partner at workplace or outside of it.
