      Pros

      AMD has been in a lot of turmoil over the past few years, but it feels like it's turning around. Especially if you are in the RTG side (graphics), AMD can be a great place to work, especially with a good direct manager. Raja Koduri has proven to be a great leader and has accomplished a lot to turn around the culture and "vibe" within the company. There are plenty of opportunities to make an impact, especially at this point in time. This is pretty rare for a company of this size and age.

      Cons

      IT at this company has been getting a lot of attention, but doesn't seem to be improving. They continually prove to be far better at creating obstacles instead of solutions. It's easily the #1 complaint of both new employees and veterans at AMD. I am surprised that the top executives and management of infrastructure and IT have survived this long.

      Pros

      It's a big company. So, a lot of great benefits and high pay. Also, a lot of opportunity for career advancement and internal transfers if a particular job/team doesn't fit (to avoid losing RSUs). Plus, they're not too hard on you regarding performance since all the performance reviews are qualitative rather than quantitative (that could be both a pro and a con, honestly).

      Cons

      It's a big company. So, a lot of bureaucracy. They get in the way of themselves requiring endless approvals for spending. Also small organizations within AMD being territorial about their particular domain rather than being as open as possible inhibits rapid progress. Also, pushing for "diversity and inclusion" is racist. They should ignore race, not try to have a representative sampling of the population. I give them a low score there because DEI is racist. But not minimal because it's only something the HR dept cares about, normal employees effectively ignore race from what I can tell. So even if management is woke, the company (the individuals) are not.
