Pros

AMD is one of the oldest companies in Silicon Valley. There are many old engineers who are really diligent and respectable. Company is still driving some innovative projects. I mean new direction not only some new families of products. Flexible work schedule. Friendly coworkers.

Cons

Too much layoff which force lots of smart people leave. This is definitely a PAIN for a company in Silicon Valley. Especially, most directly join your competitors.
