AMD reviews

- Terrible middle managers. Completely unqualified and untrained psychopath who manages through fear and intimidation....i guess they call it people skills these days - Office politics. My manager makes us spend hours debugging problems in order to ensure its not something that will make him look bad. Micromanages the way employees write emails. - Career advancement is available only to butt kissers. There is no "pay for performance". The AMD way is just a fancy graphic that appears on the CEOs slideshow. It does not apply in day to day business. Manager controls who gets bonuses. If you don't kiss butt, you don't get anywhere. - Psychopaths who cannot manage their emotions and don't know how to behave in professional environments. Everyone will try to assert what little authority they have over you.

The company has been struggling financially the last few years. Unpleasant actions such as layoff rounds, salary cuts, and mandatory vacations have occurred at various times. Bonus payouts have been low or non-existent due to poor financial performance. Road map has been unstable with project cancellations as a result.
