      Pros

      Being able to work in Austin, TX is a great benefit. At times there are breakthroughs in management that allow you to make significant beneficial change for the company. The new campus in Austin is great. The culture is laid back and allows you to take personal time (generally) to have a good work-life balance.

      Cons

      There is no culture of "management" within AMD; for the majority of managers, directors, and VPs appear to be good administrators but have no concept of how to inspire or lead people that report to them or communicate effectively. Salaries and raises appear to be trending downwards, even for top performers. Top performers get stock grants and restricted stock units, which don't mean much when the overall market value is so low.

      Pros

      AMD does have some very talented employees. The employees are the reason why people still work with AMD. Without them, the situation would be very dire.

      Cons

      Lack of direction and competent leadership. Lack of accountability by Management. Need to definie a strategy and stick to it.

      Pros

      You can be in the silicon valley. Salary is probably comparable to similar companies. Benefits packages are probably on par with those of similar companies. Schedules are generally flexible, though if you aren't seen alot you probably won't get promoted very soon.

      Cons

      Profit sharing and incentive bonuses, and sometimes even raises, are generally based on the company actually being profitable. Since that only happens about 1 in 5 years, you aren't looking at getting much beyond your normal salary. The other 4 years are typically characterized by dilutive or debt increasing fund raising. Certain benefits have been curtailed.. ESPP program is canceled, sabbaticals are gone. They say that it is due to unprofitability but I doubt they will come back even if profitability returned I believe this company would have been taken over by more competent management long ago if it wasn't for the terms of the x86 license which nullify the license upon drastic changes in ownership.
