AMD overpaid for pensando

Why do experienced people leave?

There are many reasons but I will mention only one: Why would any skilled employee stay here, if AMD pays him/ her almost the same as a new hire who has almost no experience, and they can be paid much more somewhere else?

Pensando acquisition

How common are layoffs at AMD?

I've had a job offer and considering that my current company is very layoff-happy, I really want to accept. But I want to cover all my bases first to not end up in a similar situation. What I've seen so far on this page looks good (my current company... — read more

Why would anybody hire somebody from AMD?

I scan dozens of resumes for a well-known semiconductor company and always immediately discard resumes with AMD as their most recent employer. Working for AMD just tells me that person was desperate and working for AMD was their very last choice.
