Nice enough people, disorganized mess of a company

Pros

Good benefits and decent salary. God help you if you get hired at the wrong salary or level though - nearly impossible to get a promotion, let alone raised a couple of levels. No real rewards for success other than staying on your boss's good side.

Cons

No real business processes or infrastructure. No career path. The company is basically run on personality. Who is loudest, who sounds the most convincing in a meeting. Timelines and plans are thrown out the window every time someone yells louder or someone leaves and someone new comes in. No wonder the company is struggling.

On a downward spiral.

Pros

Was exciting to be part of growth of AMD in the "good old days". If you take initiative, you have the opportunity to develop skills and expertise in areas outside of your job description. Compensation was the biggest pro.

Cons

Senior management, top-heavy, work-life balance depends on senior manager.

Pros

There are some good engineers here, the working environment is comfortable enough, the technology is interesting. Working hours can be flexible, although in my experience you will pay for trying to take advantage of that in the long run because you are not building up your appearance of being a "hard worker".

Cons

Lots of political games for advancement, management is poor from the lower levels to the upper, with only a few exceptions, pay and other rewards are low for the industry though management will constantly tell you otherwise.
