Headed in the wrong direction. AMD is no longer the highly focused, team-oriented environment it was 10 years ago. - Member Of Technical Staff AMD Employee Review

Pros

1) Leading edge technology. 2) Competitive environment. 3) Decent pay and benefits, although neither are exceptional. 4) Working in Austin, Tx

Cons

1) Poor financial performance means few opportunities for bonuses or profit sharing. 2) Company is degenerating into management "islands". Collaboration is discouraged by middle managers that are more keen on empire building. 3) Senior leadership lacks focus. Re-Orgs and new initiatives seem to occur monthly. 4) Job titles are completely out of sync with larger semiconductor industry. 5) Poor IT and administrative support

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
