Pros

Smart, talented and driven group of engineers Good learning opportunities for younger engineers When times are good, bonuses are good

Cons

Long hours, weekend and holiday work is expected The middle and upper management are out for themselves and force workers to make up for their poor decisions Titles and ranking and rating are out of whack in many cases.

Pros

The low level engineers are friendly and good people.

Cons

Long hours, constant work over holidays, weekends, and evenings. Low pay, few perks. Egotistical, stubborn managers, some that belong to a tightly-knit "old boys club". Zero attention to employee career/knowledge development.

Pros

Peers! There are good people at AMD....Just none are at the senior management position. Flexible work hours is great. If you are one of the many unfortunate people that need to interface with overseas manufacturing, you work hours will increase significantly (significant night time hours).

Cons

No hope of career advancement. Good performance is not rewarded. None existent review process and promotion guideline. If they exist, it is most certainly not followed. Only way to get promoted and rewarded is to be the "favorite" of senior management. A lot of focus is on trying to impress the senior management rather than what's more important. Lot of political "power struggle"
