      Agilent Technologies reviews

      "Work/Life" balance was invented here. Understand profit sharing bonuses when negotiating base salary. - Software Engineer Agilent Technologies Employee Review

      Pros

      I work for the company that _invented_ the "work/life balance" philosophy. Agilent is more HP than HP itself, in that sense. Flexible work hours and work arrangements, exercise classes during work hours, etc.

      Cons

      Profit sharing bonuses are merely variable pay, in that they allow Agilent to pay you a lower base salary. That way, when you get your profit sharing "bonus," you somehow are made to "feel good" about being given money you should have been making the whole time.

      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.
