Pros

I work in Product Engineering and the environment is very collaborative and solutions focused. In general, product information and experience are shared and flow easily. Mentoring is part of the culture and there is an "open door" policy among at all levels in the organization.

Cons

Upper management is extremely tight-lipped about future changes, even org changes. This is partly understandable, but also frustrating. Because we deal with product shipments, we have to interface with overseas facilities. This requires work around the clock, especially for when new products arrive. This can be very difficult and stressful and certainly isn't the best environment for everyone. Bonuses and stock shouldn't be counted on as part of compensation. They don't seem to be given much, at least over the past 3 years during the weak market period.

Pros

AMD as a company still has good brand recognition AMD has successfully renegotiated its licensing terms with its arch rival intel

Cons

AMD has too much politicking within its walls and company definies itself against intel which is dangerous AMD has huge amount of debt and cash on hand position has not improved

Pros

Large company with decent benefits and a decent work campus. Opportunities for advancement within the company through promotions or moving to new positions. Opportunity to relocate to other cities where AMD has offices. Some great people to work with.

Cons

From what I have seen, across the board, all levels of management can give the impression that they may not be the best people suited for their jobs. Why is it that the least qualified almost always seem to lead?
