AMD is a Sweat Shop
Money is okay. It's fast-paced and very high-tech. I learned a lot in the early part of my career, but lately, I've been turned into an execution machine that can have no opinion on anything. It's very, very fast-paced, and you can learn a lot at the beginning.
They work you like crazy with no regard for your personal life. Every project is the most urgent thing on the face of the planet. Most of the time these projects flop and never sell. That doesn't motivate people when we work like crazy to get the chips out the door only to have nothing to show for it but layoffs. Ugh!
Stop working us so hard constantly! We're human beings with personal lives.
