Pros

Relaxed atmosphere, great people to work with, good work/life balance. The people here are great and do not berate you. Vacation time is ample and plus you can always work from home, which is a great way to get work done without being bothered.

Cons

No bonuses or raises since 2006! Senior executives need figure a good business plan so AMD can make some money. AMD's primary competitor is Intel and from I can see so far from the salary ratings, I am being underpaid as a senior design engineer. The main reason for this is probably that AMD is lost billions last year (2007) and so probably did not have any money for raises.

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
