A lot of potential, with limited ability to execute
A lot of potential, with limited ability to execute
Great opportunities: one of two companies with an x86 license, one of two companies providing graphics for the PC/Laptop industry, and the only company designing both ARM and x86 devices. They are the only company providing graphics for the latest generation game consoles. Overall, AMD should be able to turn this into money.
Excessive debt from the ATI acquisition limits the company's ability to invest.
Indecisive leadership (e.g., how to capitalize on their positions) makes them ineffective.
Lack of a cohesive strategy spreads resources too thin.
Lack of growth opportunities combined with regular layoffs creates an atmosphere of fear instead of informed risk-taking.
Pick a strategy and help it evolve to success. The half-life of a strategy must be longer than the time it takes to execute, otherwise it decays before it succeeds.

AMD Interview Questions
AMD Interview Experiences
Engineer
The interview process was easy to schedule and go through. Two interviews back to back. A rude interviewer who did not allow me to answer questions that he asked. Mostly a resume screening, although he did not want to hear about my experience.
Machine Learning Engineer Intern
One initial recruiter call followed by an interview loop. The loop consisted of two 1-hour interviews, which included technical and coding questions. I was unable to answer some questions and was subsequently rejected.
Software Engineer Intern
The process felt disjointed with unusual follow-up times. However, all recruiters and interviewers were very friendly. It seems the teams, rather than HR, control the timelines. Interviewers were very knowledgeable.
