Pros
They still have a little of Bill and Dave's DNA, but not much.
Cons
Company has reverse growth of 90% in the last 13 years. From about 51,000 when they split off from HP, Agilent now has about 4700 employees thanks to repeated spin-offs, mass firings and uber-stupid business decisions like trying to get 9into the MRI business. Agilent has pissed billions away on failed acquisitions and mergers.
