      Pros

      Really dedicated teammates and the brain trust here is bar none. Pay is decent, RSU values are high, healthcare benefits so so but worsening as the typical plan will have you $5-10k out of pocket AFTER the deduction from your check.

      Cons

      Misogynist CVPs create and enable hostile environments in which their calls end with “you guys will just complain, anyway”. The same only reward and promote their favorites, a tough drinking tough playing set of white men with limited time in role, lower ratings and high attrition. Think you can get an equal opportunity here as a female, a person of color, or otherwise? Not in most groups. Really unfortunate given that the leadership team is largely female.

      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.
