Pros

There are a lot of good people and everyone in general has been good to work with.

Cons

New CEO is gutting the company, it used to be a great company. We are all individually taking in more work every year, there has been 3 major layoffs recently. Each about 3% of the workforce. Budget cuts are taken wherever possible, it has been a train wreck figuring out how to keep the same deadlines with less people. There are a lot of old timers as well and whenever they “retire” they look to see if it’s a position that needs filling or if it’s something we can absorb.

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.
