Pluspunten
The technology at AMD and the push for innovation is top-notch. I definitely recommend this environment to anyone who is interested in working at a place where they want to explore innovation and semiconductor technology. The atmosphere is good among employees, since they are well -aware of the corporate brand and what role they play towards helping AMD accomplish that.
Minpunten
Unfortunately, the sense of cameraderie and togetherness is not equally impressed to contractors as it is for regular hire employees. Therefore, there are times that the contractors are made to feel like they are disconnected from the whole of AMD, and as such, apart from feeling like they can contribute to the company's profitability and worth. This disconnect does not create loyalty nor trust amongst individuals that are privy to sensitive and confidential information, nor does it create any sense of security for the contractors. Without this sense of trust and connection, contractors are more prone to be willing to "jump ship" when the opportunity arises, without focusing on the impact of lack of coverage and knowledge transfer.
