Pros

Nothing good at all at HP

Cons

Printing and PCs are dead. The business is falling apart. Management only makes numbers look good using layoffs and cost reduction. Deadlines are tight, scope is high and resources are low. There is no development at all. One has to wait over 15 years to get a promotion and salary raises are below 3% at best. A lot of experienced employee are complacent because they won’t get fired. They don’t add value to the teams and get away with doing the minimum. They know HP will pay everyone the same regardless of performance so why bother working hard? This leaves 1-2 people from the team doing most of the work until they burn and leave to go elsewhere

Pros

Diverse workforce, operating in over 150 countries, providing vast opportunities for career mobility and specialty niche changes, if desired. Very low employee turn-over with a high number of personnel staying decades and ultimately retiring from the company. Committed to high ethical standards, strong privacy policies/procedures, and extremely fair employment practices. It just feels good to know they actually mean it when they claim it.

Cons

Like most (very) large organizations, they have many operational silos and could benefit from taking (and implementing) feedback from employee surveys aimed at sharing operational efficiency and modernization.

Pros

Good working culture. It falls a little prey to acting like we're a family and not a business, but at least it doesn't pretend "we work hard, we play hard".

Cons

ELT and upper management have zero vision for the company besides desperately trying to pull up stock prices. Company continues to make deep long-term sacrifices for short term gains, that barely rise above the performance of our competitors. Benefits weaken each year. Example: CVS Caremark now handles RxD insurance, and CVS Caremark is incompetent and exploitative.
