Senior software engineer
Good work life balance; benefits
Immediate Management needs to improve
Anonymous employee
Good people to work with.
Unclear future of the company. Benefits being stripped away or insufficient to keep good employees (sabbaticals, bonuses, stock valuation low)
Fellow
Strong tech culture, can-do attitude fighting wealthy competitors, open communication between ranks. Executives are usually approachable. Strong leader in Lisa.
Work-life balance can improve. Compensation not matching top peers. Less benefits compared to competitors. Lack of research and software focus.
Senior consultant
Awesome very very very very nice
None no words or complaintz
good balance between life and work. Friendly environment with good people around you. If you are good, you will be respected
compensation can be a bit lower than other places. No other major complaints. Starting to be more flexible with compensation
Senior manager
Generally nice people at director and below. The pay is above market if you can negotiate well. You get a lot of responsibility at your level if you can tolerate the politics
Senior management in marketing is a complete train wreck. Terrible, terrible managers with limited subject matter expertise. Every half-way competent person in marketing is half out the door.
Relaxed workplace atmosphere. Not a high stress work environment. Lots of company communication. Food wasn't very good, but usually don't expect it to be from a company cafeteria. Good peers in engineering team to work with. Friendly workers. Clear company direction. Good salary and benefits. Good HR. Overall good work environment.
Mostly Asian language (Chinese mostly) spoken, very hard to get information that you normally get just from being in the office and listening to others' conversations. Couldn't jump into someone else's conversation happening at the cubicle next door since it was all in Chinese. Lots and lots of Chinese spoken in the hallways and even in meetings. I was one of 5 non-Asians and I was surprised at how much non-English is spoken openly. I tend to think that if you are going to speak a non-English language, you do that privately with your group. Especially not in meetings or places where others are there who can't speak your language.
There are many good methodology were developed or in side the company. Many talented people working diligently. Overall working environmental is friendly.
The financial deficit made company set more constrain on the resource. People may overload due to tightly resource issue. Lacking competitive road map right now.
Great technology, clear roles and responsibilities.
Started getting very political, roadmap focus became shaky.
Senior product marketing manager
AMD provides great work life balance and flexibility for employees. In general, my peers are very talented individuals who genuinely care about the company and want to see it succeed. There is good camaraderie among workgroups which helps given the overarching situation the company is facing. There is also a desire among many of the leaders of the company to make changes and improve the overall operating environment. Unfortunately, they're unable to execute on those changes which leaves the company stuck in its current state. The other big positive is the location. Great new campus in Austin which has really improved the overall working environment.
Where to begin on this one... first of all overall employee morale is abysmal. Employees feel like they're in the dark about what is happening with the company, and at the same time unempowered to affect the changes they know need to be made. There seems to be an unwillingness by senior management to make the difficult changes which leaves "empires" within the company untouched letting major issues fester. On top of that, there has been a significant amount of promotion from within lately leading to the same thinking and same issues continuing to repeat themselves within senior management. All in all, major structural changes are needed at AMD to right the company. It starts at the top and needs to continue through several levels of management to get the right people, right attitudes, and right talent in place.
