Pros

If you are driven , want to learn new things and stretch your responsibility ....you will have plenty of opportunities to do so(mostly because half the company doesn't care or doesn't want or doesn't know how to do the work)

Cons

1) Middle Management is mostly either incompetent or not willing to rock a sinking boat. 2) WAY too top heavy with too many new directors and VPs from outside the company who have no clue about the AMD culture( which was a big plus for AMD for a long time - not anymore) 3) The quality of hires over the last few years ( especially at the management level) has deteriorated to the point that some of the hires are just warm bodies.

Pros

Great culture and talent pool. Positive attitudes abound. Interesting environment considering the product line and marketing opportunities.

Cons

Slow adjustments in the marketplace have lead to a decline. Environment suffers from a lack of understanding what is next and an uneasiness about the future.

Pros

Great team to work with! Multi-site collaboration with world class engineers in Sunnyvale CA, Boxborough MA, Orlando FL, Austin TX, Markham Canada, Shanghai China, Bangalore India, etc. Designing state-of-the-art graphics processors for high end gaming PCs and consoles is very satisfying. The work environment is casual and you can pretty much set your own hours as long as you deliver on your individual commitments and attend key meetings.

Cons

The company stock price could be a bit higher to make company stock rewards more valuable. If AMD can "make the turn" and Rory Read says, then AMD will be back on track with Wall Street.
