Pros

AMD as a company still has good brand recognition AMD has successfully renegotiated its licensing terms with its arch rival intel

Cons

AMD has too much politicking within its walls and company definies itself against intel which is dangerous AMD has huge amount of debt and cash on hand position has not improved

Pros

The pay is really nice. 3/4 managers I've had actually seem to care! Nice location for most folks.

Cons

They will keep you on contract until they literally cannot anymore. Getting hired on full-time is like pulling teeth.
