AMD reviews

The leadership at AMD does not have the experience accomplish what needs to be done. There is limited internal communication and it seems like there are cliques in upper management and they do not communicate. Corporate strategy is not effectively communicated down the line, and it impacts the morale. There is also no clear plan for individual career advancement. Major changes are needed for AMD to be the company they should be.

Salaries have been cut 10% with no foreseeable return 100% of what employees had been making before. 401k matching has been suspended. Communication from upper management on down is poor in terms of strategic initiatives and coming changes. Morale is epically low. Product roadmap is still desktop heavy (and margin light) while the market continues to move towards smaller, portable and more energy efficient offerings. Zero chances for advancement, career planning or even mentoring. Often, management are too concerned with the day-to-day buzz that these tasks are absolutely the last of last afterthoughts.
