Pros

Managers empower you to do the job.

Cons

AMD lacks Channels Marketing expertise and they don't have a clear direction how to sell products through OEMs, Resellers, Distributors and DMRs. AMD doesn't even conduct competitive marketing intelligence on the key programs, promotions, channels of distribution of Intel, their key competitor. Senior Management are not Channel experts and AMD keeps laying off Marketing people that had the SMB and Chanenl skills. The morale is also very low at AMD.

Cutting edge designs, hardware, integration with ATI has potential to be very rewarding, company may be at the bottom so things may get better

Questionable leadership at both mid and upper management levels, infrequent raises, frequent layoffs, lack of resources to finish the last 5% on any product that keeps us putting out mediocre chips
