Pros

Lots of opportunities to improve Get in a good group and do not have to work all that much If you are a woman esp. with young children, it is the place to work for. Nice new building to work in AMD work culture is famous for its "laid back" policy

Cons

Senior management/leadership No fair promotion Team members work only in silo's No equal workload distribution No focus my management. Most of the senior managers are AMD lifers and are waiting for the tide to turn against Intel. I do not think they have the same urgency as the low level analyst do. They have made their money But the problem is not Intel, it is AMD

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.
