AMD reviews

Sometimes long hours necessary, no full-time positions open. I was there when Hector Ruiz was in power, but now he's gone. Hopefully the company direction will really turn around now that Dirk is in charge. He always seemed like he had more of a clear direction, whereas Hector seemed to spend too much time trying to chase one thing, then jump off to chase another.

flexible hours mean you work more from home in the middle of the night, management indecision causes schedule nightmares, the company is trying to do way too much with way to few people, every project is understaffed by 2x, over committed on features by 3x, and scheduled to be finished 6 months ahead of reality. No reverse feedback from employees to management so they are allowed to run open loop, as long as they look good to their superiors, then they get praise and promotions. Really, the way to get promoted is to screw something up so badly that there should be no choice but to fire you. But if you've kissed the right asses, you get promoted instead. There are also now as many VP's and PM's as there are engineers, no wonder we can't get anything done.
