Business Outlook

Pros

AMD has a significantly high percentage of very talented individuals. Rory is trying to make changes to drive reliable execution of leadership products.

Cons

Rory's culture change message seems directed at the employees when it should be directed at Senior and/or middle management ... they seem to be resisting Rory's call for change. And while he's replaced virtually his whole executive team, it looks like it will take some time to weed out who stays and who goes in the next layers. Meanwhile there's continued attrition of those talented individuals...
