Ups and Downs

Design Engineer (Former Employee)
Sunnyvale, CA

I worked at AMD

ProsIf you know what you are doing you will do well.
Benefits are above average. Profit Sharing is nice when it's available.
Pay is above normal for high achievers.
Flex work, relaxed atmosphere (like more silcon valley companies)

ConsUsually means longer hours necessary
Unsteady company finances means ups and downs regular in a couple years time
It's a perenial underdog (this is usally a plus for those working there)

Advice to Senior ManagementBring together design centers. Me vs Them sometimes in discussions.
Determine future strategy and don't waste time reconsidering projects.
Keep talented engineers.
