Chip company that is most likely to run into a sharp object.

Pros

Great co-workers. I love the people that I work with day to day. They are the reason I am still here.

Cons

The executives suck. Don't trust them. Lies, lies, lies. They lie to employees. They lie to shareholders. Or maybe they are fools actually believe what they are saying. Not sure. Um, wait....yes. Lies. Sadly, they are poisoning a culture that was once great. Dirk gets a grace period since he is new as CEO, but so far, it looks like he is a member of the liar club (which makes him a liar who also takes away your pay - the worst combo).

fun place to work but a glass ceiling exists for non-technical employees.

Business Outlook

Pros

The best reasons to work for AMD can be summarized into 3 points: 1. Excitement- due to the high pace and competitive nature of the video graphics and microprocessor industry, there is a feeling of team competition that fills the air. 2. Work-life- although hours may be long, the atmosphere is very collegial and simply fun. Many co-workers are enthused to join sports team and participate in other recreational activities. Furthermore, AMD is accommodates your personal life by providing flex hours and work-from-home opportunities. 3. Techie Incentives- if you have interest in the high tech industry, employee purchase plans provide significant discounts on the newest toys. Furthermore, the latest and greatest items are available to observe and test- very exciting for a tech enthusiast.

Cons

There are perspectives to this answer. As a technical engineer, the sky is the limit assuming your performance is solid. However, for the non-technical employee, it is very difficult to move upwards into senior ranks.

Good team or people but too much fat in the executive row!

Business Outlook

Pros

Good people and teamwork. The tough competitive environment makes the success of each project counts and demands innovative ideas. You'll take on more responsibilities than in a bigger company. AMD always gives back to its community through donations and volunteer works

Cons

Management, management, and management! Top management doesn't know how to evaluate deals or make good decisions. There isn't enough accountability on senior executives. The company is extremely top heavy. Communivation from management is poor and employees are usually the last to know any news.
