      Pros

      There is a lot of room for professional growth if you work hard. The people working at the company are very helpful and supportive. Also, you get exposed to a lot of problems that you have to resolve in a very time critical environment. AMD partners tend to go crazy when products aren't working properly.

      Cons

      Sometimes you might have to pull long shifts because everything tends to break down when the product is about to be released. Some of the teams tend to come in very late in the morning and work very very late. This makes it difficult to sometimes coordinate with teams and get your own work done especially if you are waiting on something from someone that stays late.

      Pros

      It's a big company. So, a lot of great benefits and high pay. Also, a lot of opportunity for career advancement and internal transfers if a particular job/team doesn't fit (to avoid losing RSUs). Plus, they're not too hard on you regarding performance since all the performance reviews are qualitative rather than quantitative (that could be both a pro and a con, honestly).

      Cons

      It's a big company. So, a lot of bureaucracy. They get in the way of themselves requiring endless approvals for spending. Also small organizations within AMD being territorial about their particular domain rather than being as open as possible inhibits rapid progress. Also, pushing for "diversity and inclusion" is racist. They should ignore race, not try to have a representative sampling of the population. I give them a low score there because DEI is racist. But not minimal because it's only something the HR dept cares about, normal employees effectively ignore race from what I can tell. So even if management is woke, the company (the individuals) are not.
