Pros

Most of the people The customers & the work they do A paycheck

Cons

Everything else. If you want to work at a company where you are given the right balance of authority to run your function and accountability to make sure things are going well, where people are promoted based on their contributions, capabilities, and track record, and where people at the top of the company work collaboratively to balance the needs of customers, shareholders, and employees, this is not the place for you. It used to be, but that all ended when the new CEO came on board. Now, a job requirement for all employees is to kiss the ring of the king and his sycophants.

Pros

My team and I like being in a company doing good in the world. Can advance my career.

Cons

Pace is flat out and looks like it will stay that way. It’s hard to look at better ways to work when people are stretched trying to get something done then move to the next

Pros

The stock price went up a bit!

Cons

I've been with Agilent for quite some time, but since the CEO transition, the overarching sense of alignment and shared purpose has seriously eroded. It's like we're operating in silos. The Enterprise Communications Division, in particular, is perceived as disconnected from what the rest of the company actually does day‑to‑day. There's an ivory tower mentality that's really depressing.
