Business Outlook

Pros

Technology is good - more energetic work seen at the engineering point. The interaction between various engineering teams is great. Lot of learning could be obtained from this. Lot of technical experience lies in there.

Cons

Senior Management is pathetic in the company. Many technical details are lost in the management mayhem. Being an underdog and trying to compete with a gorilla and without much money in the kitty screws the company big time. Product realization and analysis of the market place is very bad that it kills the enthusiasm of the engineers. There is no work life balance.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great co-workers, all the worker bees have the same goal, to make AMD a fun and proud place to work. To be an industry leader at what they do. To do things right and effient. Also,.. Good benefits, good extra activies that is not work related.

Cons

Poor managements Dumb Managements its all about the perfent Process they have in-place Sweet shop.... All the management are like those dilbert managers.... They think they know how to do it better, they often speak for the worker bees without their inputs. They often change decisions on the fly without thinking... (Which is always wrong). When things go wrong because of decisions they make or altering the projects, its always the workers bees fault. They either get a bad review or get laid off...... Thays how its like working at the beloved AMD/ATI....

Pros

Being able to drive technology; AMD has great engineers.

Cons

AMD doesn't know how to market its products. There are many areas where they are leaders or are competitive and they have trouble to get that message out.
