Innovative Work, Odd Decisions
Innovative Work, Odd Decisions
This is definitely a great company to work for. Very innovative and on the bleeding edge of technology. One could learn a lot from working here.
The company makes some strange business decisions. It has to cut the workforce frequently because of such decisions. AMD doesn't seem too keen on innovation, just following in the footsteps of others.
Management needs to go out to more shows and conferences to gain an understanding of consumer needs. Management should also foster ideas generated from the engineering team, instead of only marketing-driven requirements.

AMD Interview Questions
AMD Interview Experiences
Software Engineer Intern
The interview happened over Zoom, although it felt like the candidate was already chosen by the time I was interviewed. The format was rapid-fire technical knowledge questions. I always wanted to work at AMD, but this disillusioned me.
GFX Diagnostics and Development Engineer
Given a string, reverse it and convert it to uppercase. Given a 32-bit integer pointer, copy its contents into a 64-bit pointer and sign-extend the upper half.
PEY - Software Engineer
One interview, with three interviewers. I was asked some easy LeetCode coding questions. I was also asked about how I would test my function and identify corner cases. The interviewers were friendly and got back to me quickly.
