Pros

AMD has alot going for it. Most of the people that work there truly want to be there. The worker bees and middle management are competent and teamwork is valued highly. Prima Donna behavior isn't tolerated at AMD as much as it is at other high tech companies. All in all AMD is an enjoyable place to work at.

Cons

It gets tiresome wondering if the company will survive and if your job will still exist a year from now. Senior management flip flops on important issues too much, ruining their credibility internally and driving the stock down even lower than it should be.

Pros

AMD - recognized leader in semiconductor industry. Cooperation with all major tools manufacturers. Very talented people working together, high educational level of the employee. High level of expertise in certain areas. Nice working environment, free schedule, ability to work from home, ease of getting vacation time, as long as your work is complete.

Cons

Oversized management, low moral related to pure financial performance. Non-realistic goals resulted in employees over-loading. A lot of useless work. Pure marketing and project management. No effort from management to boost moral or actually lead.
