Pros

Work from home is the only best thing

Cons

Poor management, the managers micro manage the staff and set unrealistic goals. AMD revenues dropping despite having good products but due to not proper marketing and people management. The Senior manager is self-centred and act like superhero to save the day. The managers and team lead never treat the staff politely and guide properly. Staff turnover very high from all department. The HR department not co-operative and never provide proper guideline. Very strong office politic in AMD Cyberjaya. Too much cost cutting.

Pros

It can be very relaxed. Get your job done and you can count on promotions and raises. The work can be very cutting edge. The managers for the most part let you do you thing and don't get into the mix too much. Unless there is a lay off it is VERY rare for anyone to get fired.

Cons

Relaxed also doubles for no real movement. They don't change things and when they do it seems to frequently be in the no right direction. I won't say wrong because often the choices seem to just neutral. The promotions are few and far between and seem to be heavily based on who senior management sees most, not necessarily who is doing a good job. You boss also has to like you because it appears they need to burn political capital to get promotions for non-senior management noticed people. Management lets you do your thing, but that means when the poop hits the fan you can get fried too. They don't really know what you do or how involved or difficult it is. Raises are small. Bonuses non-existent. Stock options have been worthless for sometime now. .
