Pros

Very supportive and helpful co-workers and management. Lots of opportunities to learn for new grad employees.

Cons

Cutbacks every year and losing many benefits that were initially there. Limited space in facilities leading to smaller cubes, limited meeting spaces, etc. due to cutbacks. Employees are not properly recognized for their accomplishments. Very tight deadlines and expectations set by management that are usually not realistic causing lots of unpaid overtime hours. Projects are usually not scheduled and resourced properly leading to many projects lining up one on top of the other leading to times with very heavy workload and times with less work. Sometimes groups tend to play the blame game and focus on the negative and not on the positive.

Pros

Lots of learning opportunities - smartest people to create hi tech complex products. Truly special people.

Cons

Work life balance. Canadian branch (ATI) knows how to maximize employees creativity and commitment by encouraging entrepreneurialism, but U.S. branch (controlling most of AMD) has stifling influence due to excessive process and reporting requirements. Counterproductive to accelerating product introduction pace.

Pros

Great culture, flexible work schedule, flexible to try out different job roles within the company, fair bonus if the company is doing well. The prospect of the company looks good with new products in the pipeline.

Cons

Because the company was losing money for several years, the benefits are below average, not much perks. Historically the company has been an underdog to the competitor most of the time.
