Pros

Flexible work hours.

Managers are quite generous on time off.

AMD supports higher education. The process for tuition reimbursement is quite easy.

Cons

The office is in the middle of nowhere, at least a 2-mile drive to get to any shop, leading to fewer choices for lunch.

There's a lack of bonuses, and benefit cuts have occurred over the last two years.

Advice to Management

Need more employee all-hands meetings. I don't have any idea how things are going except for my own team.

Need to make code names simpler. The purpose is to confuse the media, but the media seems to figure them out eventually, while the employees are still confused.
