Ventajas

stable after the first few years family/work balance flexible talented colleagues

Desventajas

Workplace politics The high level technical staffs, PMTSes and Fellows to be specific, have too much weight in AMD's promotion process and unfortunately they don't care much about detail oriented tasks like coding and fixing bugs etc,. Working on these tasks might keep you away from being laid off but certainly won't help you much with your career development. Participating meetings and asking questions to draw attention or making friends with PMTS(having lunch with them is a good start) are the ways to go.

Ventajas

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).

Desventajas

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.
