AMD

Very good work environment. Flexible work time and reasonable supervision.

Work on the cutting edge of technology, a good opportunity to raise your technical skills.

Good to have such a record on your resume.

Extremely difficult to grow. There is no way to be promoted if you work more than speak. Opposite, you are successful if your PowerPoint and speaking skills are higher than C++ proficiency. Lot of meetings with zero output. Sometimes a process is more important than a result. Too many unsatisfied, highly experienced engineers leave the company. To fill the gap, AMD likes very much to hire external people rather than promote internal ones.

Focus on the satisfaction of your employees. Promote more often and based on technical skills, but not artistic ones.
