      Good place to work, learn and grow personally

      Pros

      This is a fast-paced competitive industry -- lots to learn and a lot of very bright folks are working at AMD. The company facilitates knowledge sharing between projects, employees, disciplines. It is very easy to be involved in several projects around the company. AMD does not have much cash to spare, every project is effectively viewed as key, and this is personally rewarding. Relationships between employees are good, cordial. Some people are good friends outside of work, work-relations are very good.

      Cons

      Benefits are so-so. AMD's competitive advantage is difficult to maintain, and in the CPU industry there is no place for misstep. With little cash in the bank account it isn't clear where AMD is heading next...

      Exciting work and good pay, if a little unstable at times

      Pros

      It's one of the highest profile tech companies, due to the fact that there are really only two companies making microprocessors for the whole world. As a result, you get to work with some of the most advanced technologies and designs. The people are all very laid back and great to work with, and will even stop their own work to help you. There is a real sense of community. People don't just go to work and go home to their separate lives, they actually hang out outside of work. Lastly, there is very little inter-departmental politics, in-fighting, and rampant backstabbing, unlike at some other microprocessor company.

      Cons

      Instability due to the fact your only competitor is a ruthless behemoth.

      Never a dull moment!

      Pros

      The olds, working for founder Jerry Sanders was great. Never a dull moment. Gave you enough opportunity to do good work. He expected/demanded a lot, but it was worth it.

      Cons

      The huge swings from good times to bad times, back to good times, and back, were a real drain on employees. Too much stress. Company culture shifted when the bulk of management shifted to Austin, TX.
