Pros

They pay above average base salary for many positions. Baseline benefits are very competitive. If you really want to live south of the river in Austin, they are very convenient.

Cons

In a world of flattening organizations, they are opting for increasing levels of hierarchy and power distance. Not much of a future...they could not successfully leverage being the only second source for x86 processors, now they are stuck being an incumbent in a mature/declining industry with none of the perks that Intel has. Completely unreliable bonuses (goes with completely unreliable profits). Stock that used to be marginally cyclical but is probably stuck in the tank, that's not a perk, either.
