Pros

You get to work with some of the best engineers. Also, working on some of the most complex designs gives you ample opportunities to learn and innovate.

Cons

Although the top management is focused and working hard, there seems to be disconnect between them and lower management ranks. First and second level managers are more busy managing their bosses and impressing them than growing team and managing the work.

Pros

- interesting products, being #2 doesn't mean your product is that bad - opportunities for internal transfer - challenging problems in both product and research work - generally smart coworkers - feeling of a shared goal / decent morale - fairly open to suggestions for product improvement

Cons

- company in permanent financial trouble; don't count on a bonus - low-grade work environment (cube farm with buzzing fluorescents) - some projects get cancelled, sucks if yours does - missing recognition even with excellent reviews - easy to get stuck with uninteresting, long-term maintenance tasks if you're not careful to avoid them immediately

Pros

Good work environment and some nice and talented people that you get to work with is something that I have always like about working at AMD.

Cons

Career oppurtunities are very limited and there is almost no appriciation for good work. The level of compensation compared to other companies in the industry and even other locations of AMD is terrible. I have had very little or no raises over the last 3 years and the company just reduced salaries of all fulltime employees by 10%.
