Pros

Lots of interesting technical work at AMD, individuals can definitely make a difference to whatever project they're on. (It's not a small company, but it's not too big that individuals can't matter.) Flexible work schedules (working at home is common and encouraged), and good workers - smart and easy to work with.

Cons

Losing money quarter after quarter isn't exactly a morale booster. Career development isn't a priority (and in many parts of the company it's non-existent). Project planning and selection seems haphazard and more reactive than proactive, which can cause frequent project churn and frustration.

Pros

AMD provides good pay for the industry to attract people

Cons

It is like watching a train wreck - you can see it coming but there's no getting out of the way. The constant reorganization and direction changes are dizzying to say the least.

Pros

Good environment, good people. Its company culture is really laid back, which is great. The pay is great, and generally people are very nice. Managers have no problem approving your vacation times. They have company events frequently and has great team building exercises. The new campus in Austin TX is beautiful and has very nice amenities. Austin is a great place to live in general. So definitely a good company to work for.

Cons

Sometimes long hours, and being in competition with Intel can be extremely stressful at times. Sometimes the management are not the most technically proficient people. So it can be frustrating.
