Pros

Good benefits like health plan and gym, good location with lots of good Asian food nearby, nice environment with clean and big spaces, competent but very nice co-workers.

Cons

Not much assistance in your work; have to take your own initiative to accomplish things. Closed office environment, so may get a little boring or lonely

Pros

*Work/life balance is great. *Do not have to be creative as you can let Intel do the marketing for you. *Before Hector, a fun family environment to work in *Intel is hated by so many of it's customers, they run to you for help and pray AMD never goes away *Despite a very incompetent egocentric dysfunctional executive team, somehow, you'll like working with your colleagues - not so much inter-team fighting

Cons

*Lack of a sane vision (fusion is not sane) *Political infighting is unparalleled *To heavily focused in Austin. The Austin talent pool has long been tapped out *Most AMDers who work in Austin hate technology and treat it like a 9-5 government job, and forget everything at 4:58pm *It still has so many open bleeding sores from the Hector years, we wondering if she'll live *The CEO doesn't like to travel and feels uncomfortable in front of customers *Intel owns the x86 license and will always no exactly how many processors you sell *If Intel couldn't convince people to change their software for Itanium, what makes AMD think they customers will change their software for their "fusion"initiative

Pros

The environment and attitude with in the company is amazing. My coworkers are all a pleasure to work with and one of the main reasons I remain at the company.

Cons

With the recent economic downturn many of us were just happy to have a job, but now that the industry is rebounding I am still waiting for AMD to show that it is committed to it's employees with pay raises and recognition.
