Applied Micro Circuits Employee Reviews for Senior Engineering Manager

What do you like about working at Applied Micro Circuits?

"The responsibility for the most complex and advanced project at AMCC: the YunI Switch Fabric chipset and customer satisfaction. Responsibility for all aspects of the program: design, marketing, corporate customer interface/management, company priority. The most gratifying was that the project generated more income than any other project because the customer was committed and we executed."

What don't you like about working at Applied Micro Circuits?

"Didn't have a four-year degree at the time, which limited my title; unable to get director title without bachelor's degree, which I am completing with a 3.9 GPA. Also had to drive 58 miles each way, but had carpoolers that were good company. Great team and teamwork. Few excuses and lots of respect."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
