Vantaggi

AMD has very innovative product designers creating the highest-performing processors in the industry, inexpensive gym access, working for the underdog, pays for continuing education, and has employee discount programs.

Svantaggi

Lost in the masses, everything is outsourced including the recognition programs, doesn't understand what their target market needs or wants, doesn't understand software as an enabler of hardware, employees are treated more as an additional cost than an asset, no motivation to follow company-wide programs like 50x15 (50x15.amd.com), company seems top-heavy with at least 3 levels of Vice Presidents and lots of perks for being sr. management with no route to get there. Lots of bureaucracy, Director and above only show up to reprimand. Little communication from senior management to contributors, and even less communication between departments about business-changing developments and projects.

Vantaggi

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).

Svantaggi

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.
