Pros

Flexible work environment but you’ll be working all the time no matter where you are, free gym membership that you won’t have time to use, good training ground for newbies since everyone does 2-3 jobs, openly supports LGBTQ employees but you have to pretend you don’t have a family if you’re a mom.

Cons

AMD operates like the world’s oldest start up. Budgets are always tight with incredibly high expectations and minimal staff. You will easily clock 60-70+ hours/week and EVERYTHING will be your job from high level strategic customer meetings/presentations to ordering carpeting for vendor booths. It takes much longer to get promoted if you are female although AMD has a female CEO. Very little employee appreciation by managers because all funds are allocated to the business.

Pros

Product lines are superb. Thanks to their copycat chinese CEO and technology. Passionate , egoistic, arrogant engineers. Ryzen will bust the market.

Cons

Worst Managers. AMD fan boy. Think they can beat Intel, when Intel got bored of CPU long back and moved away from all these marketing techniques, once Moore's law ended. They have so many businesses that AMD can only dream of. Buying out companies is an old technique when you dont have your own expertise. Indian management is worst . They give threat to fire employees and ruin their career. People are earning double AMD engineers' money doing less challenging and so-called less meritorious tasks.

Pros

Friendly colleagues and good working environment.

Cons

Frequent OT and working on weekend are needed to accomplish assigned tasks and projects and no compensation will be given. Work-life balance is non-existent. Slow career progression in certain department despite working harder than others. Demoralising when you see your friend in other company promoted to manager or senior engineer while you are still a junior engineer. If you cherish your health and wants to have better career progression please look elsewhere. Building facilities are rundown and frequently breakdown.
