Pros

Many sites around the world. There are lots of young engineers to work with. Company is trying to give bonuses even though its loosing money left and right.

Cons

AMD is not doing well. Getting squeezed out of "relevance" from Intel on high end and Arm on the low end. Arm is selling into the servers now, managements response is we will buy Calxeda and dominate the space... not a good strategy to me.

Pros

Very interesing work with significant opportunities to contribute to the product design/development. The talent of the staff is truly best in class and the culture is challenging and supportive to push you to your best.

Cons

Lack of management support in defining direction on new design or innovation e.g. no leadership at the director level always waiting for exectutive approval (feels like handcuffs). The corp stance is people are the biggest asset of the company but they can't plan a road map that is supported by the staffing levels. Continually hope for the home run on timelines.
