AMD - at a crossroads

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexibility for work-life balance, access to up-to-date technology and applications. Great new facility, opportunity to cultivate relationships during and after work (life-long friendships).

Cons

Lost in the shuffle, lack of management communication, career paths and growth are exercises and charts; they need to be executed and implemented

Upper management lacks relevant experience.

Business Outlook

Pros

Technical and organizational challenges abound. But that is a result of its downsides.

Cons

Immature and incompetent upper management. There are no technical visionaries, neither are there any business and management visionaries. Upper management in one division of the company is bungling through products. Only reason they make any money is because of equally immature competition. The other major division is rudderless, following the leader blindly. Not the healthiest of situations.

Pros

Good Pay , housing for interns paid in half, dental, vision and health covered too! The Boston design center have good amount of young people in a flat hierarchy structure. It makes very easy to work with everybody, people is really friendly and reply to each other queries within minutes. There used to be free coffee, cafeteria inside, and very close to building entrances parking lot. The center is accesible right off the highway, very fast commute. All the cubicles have a huge dual screen setup, system support is really fast getting back at you and there is a pretty forest you can walk on those frustrated days with the CAD tools :)

Cons

company is lossing a lot of money several quarters in a row and the stock is very depreciated
