      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.

      Pros

      Money. They Pay well, that is about it. The campus is beautiful, and the people are friendly from a personal standpoint, but organization is terrible.

      Cons

      The internal workings of AMD are a complete mess, the management does not know what they are doing and treat the employees very poorly. Extremely intelligent people are denied the promotions and raises that they deserve, and those that get them generally get them by brown-nosing management.

      Nice place to visit, but wouldn't want to live here.

      Pros

      I've worked there as an intern and they generally take good care of their coops, the pay is good and its not super-difficult to get hired, they offer good benefits to their interns too, if that is important to you. If things work out with the group you work for, it can be easy to get a job there after you graduate. They have a nice new environmentally sound green campus in Austin with killer views and good facilities. The gym is nice and well-equipped and the staff is helpful. The other cool thing about AMD is that they have lots of great charity-type programs, including 50x15, if that is your sort of thing. Oh, and they have tons of garage parking.

      Cons

      The group that actually manages the intern program means well, I'm sure, but they don't really connect with and support interns very well, they just kind of throw you at your group and say "see you in a few months". There doesn't seem to be a big focus on really helping interns find what is interesting and fulfilling as a career path. Their new campus in Austin is way out in the middle of nowhere, it's not convenient to anything the way the old campus on Ben White was. The place is run by and for engineers, which don't always make great leaders or managers. Interns don't have any way to see where they fit in to the organization overall.
