Pros

Many people think AMD has potential for exponential growth

Cons

Thoughout my career, I have worked domestically and internationally - across multiple Fortune 500 companies, and I've never worked for a company as toxic and broken as AMD. They are desperate and hungry to be in the leagues of major tech companies - but at their core, they are extremely dated and broken in bureaucracy. The culture is so toxic, they suck the life out of you by priding themselves on working weekends, skipping holidays and precious family time and celebrations with the hope and prayer for a year end bonus in exchange. This company has the opposite values of any company I'd like to work for long term. There have been so many former employees that have gone to HR about management violating ethics, policies, etc., but the reports are immediately silenced and discarded. The same toxic management continues to prevail, at the expense of so many who wish to escape. Very scary company - stay away!

Pros

Getting paid is great but having no time to do anything else but work is great for workaholics. I love it when IT pushes another Win 11 update that takes 30 minutes to load so I actually have time to use the restroom.

Cons

This place is a modern day sweat shop. Putting 14 hour days most days and weekends! The company is so cheap now they won’t buy boards to do our job and expect a 30% increase in productivity by using AI on top of 5% yearly workload increase. You do the compounding math. How about pumping up my pay that much at the beginning of the year and not 7 months behind. They pump out so many devices nobody can keep up and the quality of our products has gone way downhill. Too many meetings. I would rather be mopping floors or mowing grass to get my life back.
