      Work is good but not benefits and compensation

      Pros

      Quality of the job and the work environment. I am proud of the work I do at AMD and you don't get to work in these core technologies in most of the other companies. Also the work environment is very good and competitive. As a overall, I would like to get up everyday and look forward to going to work.

      Cons

      The benefits package is very bad and the stocks are not performing well. Compensation itself is not bad and is comparable to some of the other top companies. But at the end of the day, if you look at the benefits and your expertise, it doesn't match.

      AMD will get smaller before it gets bigger

      Pros

      Interesting technologies, decent company, flexible time off, fairly engineering focused. lone competitor to intel on the cpu front and the lone competitor to intel and nvidia on the graphics front does mean that it is still doing compelling cutting edge research and development.

      Cons

      poor bonus and stock compensation, too spread out in terms of location. no espp, 401k match is now gone. apparently salary cuts. questionable merger in terms of payouts to on boarding ATI menbers. hiring freezes make it difficult to know whether an approved rec will actually go through, which makes planning difficult. too many contractors in critical software areas does not bode well.

      Great work-life balance. Great time to join if you believe the stock will go back up one day.

      Pros

      Flexible work hours. Managers don't normally keep track of work hours or ask you to be physically in the office all the time. Good work-life balance. Work days and work hours are flexible as long as the hours are about right. I have never been rejected on my vacation requests either. (Of course I don't purposely take days off during the busy time)

      Cons

      AMD is burning cash and not making enough revenue to cover the costs. Lay offs are depressing. Stock going down is depressing. I came from ATI. One of the first thing AMD senior managements promised in 2006 when they aquired ATI was to continue the quarterly all-hand meetings. They failed on the very first quarter after the merger. There hasn't been enough visibility of what's going on besides your own team.
