      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...

      Great place for a co-op engineer

      Pros

      The mentoring program was great, I was teamed with a brilliant employee who never hesitated to answer my questions. Other co-ops I worked with felt the same way. I started with tedious work, but as you prove yourself, opportunities open to work on real projects that full-time employees would work on.

      Cons

      Space was cramped, as you had 2, sometimes 3 people sharing a cubicle/office. They have a new building on Austin, so I don't know how that has changed with the move there.

      Good work atmosphere but management needs to improve.

      Pros

      The work environment is awesome! Its one of the biggest positive things going for AMD. The level of technical knowledge is very good and the best part is ,even the most senior technical/management folks are very approachable and are eager to listen to you !!

      Cons

      The top management needs to do a lot more to get the company in the right track. They lost focus for a while but the recent signs indicate, that they are getting their act together finally!. They need to do a much better job in road map planning. This is one area AMD HAS to improve. Another big area of concern is "resource/project planning" and it got from bad to worse, sometime back!!! Management did improve somewhat in this respect, but a lot of positive changes need to happen in this space.
