Business Outlook
Pros
Flexible hours are good. You can have a chance to work on new projects, on things only a few companies in the world are working on, but only if you are in the right team.
Cons
You may end up doing boring things, using oldfashioned tools and flows, and slowly lose your competencies since the rate of the knowledge decay is very high in the industry. The company as a whole has a hazy future. It has a surprisingly bureaucratic structure. AMD is in a steady decline as a company, showing big inertia and slow response to the challenges at hand. Depending on the position and location, it is possible your employer may change, or you can get laid off.
