The apathy of employees should make you think twice about applying to AMD
Advanced Micro Devices is currently on the rebound following the Intel revelations the previous year. The company is positioned to develop some breakthrough technological advancements in the area of computing. Being a part of this revolutionary design of GPCPU chips is one of the best reasons to work for AMD.
The downsides of working for AMD are that the employees are rather apathetic. During my tenure there, many were not passionate about their work nor did they seem to want to put in the extra effort. The manager had a tendency to cancel weekly meetings.
Facilitate a culture of pride in AMD products.
More mandatory team sessions.

AMD Interview Experiences
Software Development Engineer II
Interview with recruiter. She was really kind. Nothing was hard for me to answer. The interview wasn't very long, so I can't write much here. That's it. I don't have anything more to write.

2 rounds phone interview. Questions regarding Computer Architecture/ISA/Caches/DRAM/SRAM dominated. There were C++ coding, digital IC design questions and as well along with review of resume on projects and experience. First round with technical lead

Very fun. The interviewers were great and they asked me to describe a motherboard and a GPU. It was very engaging and provided great insights into the actual job at Markham.
