Pros

Challenging work from the technical side of things Good benefits Beautiful campus

Cons

Incompetent upper management Only the best for management, and the least for the technical staff. Management refuses to admit when they are wrong, and will sink the company rather than change.

Pros

AMD provides good benefits, most of the talent is good. Company is big so there are opportunities in many areas of technology.

Cons

AMD doesn't reward loyalty to the company. In past experience if employees leave to go to another company and come back, they get better pay and better position
