Agilent Technologies reviews

This company buys well run and successful companies and destroys them. They have done this over and over again. Try to use the same playbook with acquired companies and never learn that applying legacy processes and strategy to these acquisitions destroys them EVERY SINGLE TIME. Happened with V11, Varian, BioTek, etc. It is insane that they think that doing the same thing, over and over again will lead to a different outcome. I also agree with many of these reviews that there is no accountability. The people that made decisions that were horrible just move up. Look at BioTek…they spent $1.2 B on it. Ruined it and then ask “how did this happen?”. It is just pure incompetence. Ignite transformation has been a debacle. Letting go of competent people and backfilling with people that are willing to play the political game. If you are thinking about selling your company to Agilent, think twice about if the $ is worth destroying what you have built.

Lacking in clarity in some key business areas. Slow to make some decisions, too fast with others leaving gaps that impact the customers we are supposed to be focused on.
