Pros

AMD attracts highly talented individuals. The company is widely recognized as a leader in innovation in its field and has truly changed the game in the microprocessor/chipset industry. When working at AMD, one is expected to continuously think about improving processes and the quality of the products.

Cons

Employee engagement and career promotion and training opportunities are not always taken seriously by management. Many of the managers in the company do not have any business experience and instead come from a purely technical background, and thus lack essential skills in employee engagement and motivation. Workload can vary widely across departments or groups. Plans are changed too frequently due to poor forecasting/planning and there is a feeling within the company that this leads to too much wasted effort. The company constantly struggles financially and this has affected employee compensation significantly in the past.
