Pros

The working environment at AMD is very friendly. Everyone, including my boss, are very nice and chill people. They are supportive and don't mind helping out when I encounter problems. My boss is not pushy, but we could still get work done with high quality. I am very glad to work on real projects during my time there, and hopefully to see them in the market later!

Cons

If you are looking for an intensive working environment where everyone is completely focused, it may not be the place for you. But if you are seeking a good work-life balance while working on projects that could make an impact in the industry, it is a great place to be.

Also, the company is going through a tough time, but you can view this as a disadvantage or an opportunity.

Advice to Management

I worked with two managers in ASIC teams, and they are great people. They have advanced technical skills, which could provide helpful guidance for an intern like me, and great management skills, which promote a nice working environment.
