Pros

Functions more like a start up since it has scaled down over the years due to financial losses. Still a few great engineers left at the company. More flexibility to move around in different teams than other companies. You can learn a lot if you play your cards right.

Cons

Some bad decisions and sticking to them is responsible for the place where this once great company is today. The heads roll way too often in the upper management. And with each new executive comes a decision to drastically change the direction of the company.

Pros

Good place to learn. Have enough time to execute since the project timelines are spread over a year and half which is very good for Verification engineer.

Cons

Most of the verification debug happens with x86 code which is a pain to debug. Office in ITPL is big draw back for the people traveling from other side of the Bangalore due to traffic.

Pros

People were alright, nothing much to add here.

Cons

Company lost it's vision. Stock is tanking. Luckily I haven't been laid off yet. This company is in real trouble, I advise not buying AMD anytime soon as there has been a lot of chatter in the board room about AMD dropping it's GPU division and taking a huge loss. Morale is horrible right now and things are looking very grim. Also, Becky, if you're reading this, Dave has been steeling your lunch.
