Pros

Smart co-workers. Excellent first line managers. Work environment encourages collaboration.

Cons

Mid Level and executive managers do not know how to lead. They play politics more than they look at true customer and business needs. Few managers are mature enough to have 'remote' employees. Makes for a very secular group that can be hired. Managers need more than sensitivity training. they need to learn how to groom and lead and inspire. There is not management training here. Too many egos create sales prevention issues.

Good people as peers Base compensation is good as bonusses are infrequent Austin is a nice place to live Interesting technlogogies, especially for hardware designers

Cons

Bonusses are infrequent Poor execution Not much training or other support infrastructure Management is mostly good old boy silos Lots of management spin about things getting better soon Very little opportunity for job rotations Much business/market risk due to the competative environment

AMD - A place to work, a place to grow with

Pros

Amount of code written in AMD is getting bigger everyday, and there are a lot tasks for a software engineer perspective in terms of versioning, testing, code quality, etc. One can gain a lot of experience in such a big company with a reasonable pace rather than a start-up company madness.

Cons

For the last 2 years, there has been a lot churn (in and out) which makes hard to form a team.
