Pros

- Lots of smart talent - Depending on team, can have decent manager - Interesting opps if on right team - Very fair compensation - probably end up paying a slight premium to acquire and retain talent

Cons

- Too far behind Intel to ever really match them - Also tends to lose out to Nvidia on high-end graphics cards - Can't see the company surviving in its current form for more than next 18-24 mos. - Ineffective process and bureaucracy is rampant - If you stick around long enough, messaging as to when things will be better sounds suspiciously familiar (cause same old story trotted out)
