Pluspunten

Very good in terms of work load and understanding managers. I really enjoyed the people I worked with as well as the work environment. Everyone was very helpful and my managers really knew how to ramp up my work so I never felt over-worked, but at the same time, I never felt underutilized.

Minpunten

Sometimes long hours necessary, no full-time positions open. I was there when Hector Ruiz was in power, but now he's gone. Hopefully the company direction will really turn around now that Dirk is in charge. He always seemed like he had more of a clear direction, whereas Hector seemed to spend too much time trying to chase one thing, then jump off to chase another.

Pluspunten

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).

Minpunten

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.
