Pros

Peers! There are good people at AMD....Just none are at the senior management position. Flexible work hours is great. If you are one of the many unfortunate people that need to interface with overseas manufacturing, you work hours will increase significantly (significant night time hours).

Cons

No hope of career advancement. Good performance is not rewarded. None existent review process and promotion guideline. If they exist, it is most certainly not followed. Only way to get promoted and rewarded is to be the "favorite" of senior management. A lot of focus is on trying to impress the senior management rather than what's more important. Lot of political "power struggle"

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
