Pros

There aren't any now. It used to be a great company. AMD was a forward looking company struggling to compete with Intel yet they treated people with respect and allowed them to do their job. Senior management was involved in the day to day running of ther company. They listened to and were involved with the employees.

Cons

Total lack of leadership form the top. They are more interested in empire building and being quoted in the press than running the company. The political manuvering that is taking place is getting in the way of making smart business decisions and just geting the job done. There is no strategic direction coming form Senior Management so that good business decisions can be made regarding the value of work being done on projects.

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.
