Pros

Good people and teamwork. The tough competitive environment makes the success of each project counts and demands innovative ideas. You'll take on more responsibilities than in a bigger company. AMD always gives back to its community through donations and volunteer works

Cons

Management, management, and management! Top management doesn't know how to evaluate deals or make good decisions. There isn't enough accountability on senior executives. The company is extremely top heavy. Communivation from management is poor and employees are usually the last to know any news.

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.
