Pros

interest to focus on microprocessor products. It is a challenging working environment when there is activity. The company has the ability to spend a lot of money on new project and gets good support from the contractor teams.

Cons

too many people doing the same thing. At the present time, AMD is in stand-by mode. One of the fab has been completly unequipped and people have been waiting long enough for the decision concerning the close future. If AMD is to go on a joint venture, why is the information not shared with the employees. I would like to see as well a more centrylized organisation to avois parallel projects of the same nature to be ignitiated at the same time.

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.
