How many chiefs does it take to run the tribe? As many that will fit in the conference rooms
Nonstop leading-edge work. If you like to work, this is a great place. Manufacturing is open 24/7, so it's easy to just keep on working. Free coffee too! Great incentives if you are in the inner circle. Forge tight relationships with fellow employees, even outside of work. Usually located in great cities to live in: Silicon Valley, Austin, TX, Dresden, DE, Singapore. Constant innovation at many levels of the organization.
Politics, long hours, average pay, and weak incentives if you are not in the loop. Salespeople must not understand how to forecast future sales, and I would say they are the biggest component as to why AMD tends to fall behind in technologies and new products.
Armchair quarterbacks, a lot of comments but little understanding of the amount of work necessary to achieve goals.
Management spends too much time in meetings and not enough time preparing for them and having meaningful feedback.
Management needs to work on some of the presentations and not just ask those below for the presentations.
There is a leak! Quick, get a band-aid!
Leadership seems to think they should get huge bonuses, and they think outsourcing is the key to profitability.

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.
