I worked for a competitor, (not laid off, just quit to take a break). AMD seems to pay a bit better and the office is closer to home. They have been stealing coworkers over the years. I get the impression that the company culture is a bit more about taking risks. My old employer was very conservative, and even though I was working in the least conservative team, I still felt like the culture was too slow.
Why? Is it a bad place to work? Spill the beans lol
very strange to see someone say thay AMD pays better. we have a lot of attrition on our team because most competitors pay better. As for culture, it’s ok. I’m senior enough that I can do whatever I want now. We do use a lot of in house tools that suck ass, but we seem to be moving towards standardisation. I’m hopeful that this trend continues. Idk if I would recommend AMD, but I have no idea what kind of work you do and what team might hire you. Wish you the best either way

as someone that does work there (not laid off thankfully), I gotta ask, why?
