Pros

Very interesing work with significant opportunities to contribute to the product design/development. The talent of the staff is truly best in class and the culture is challenging and supportive to push you to your best.

Cons

Lack of management support in defining direction on new design or innovation e.g. no leadership at the director level always waiting for exectutive approval (feels like handcuffs). The corp stance is people are the biggest asset of the company but they can't plan a road map that is supported by the staffing levels. Continually hope for the home run on timelines.

Pros

Helpful people, good team camaraderie during difficult times. There is a sense of 'fighting for the underdog' among the employees. Opinions are heard (though not always acted upon) and meetings are often focused.

Cons

Always catching up to Intel. Last 2 years have been a roller coaster what with all the layoffs leading to low morale. Projects often get canceled and there has been a constant reorg going on. This leads to a lot of uncertainty among employees as to what the next assignment would be.

Pros

AMD is a company based on rewarding performance and anyone who says otherwise was unfortunately managed by a poor individual. This is a company that provides growth opportunity, but you must work for it. That's the key, you have to look for your next promotion, and pursue it with gusto. Otherwise, we are a small company and there is only so much you can expect when the task we have at hand against our competition is enormous.

Cons

Being jerked around by the market despite our ability to perform.
