Pros
Great technology and industry-leading products. Agilent has the best research and development team in the industry, or so it seems from inside. The team nature of the field sales group is refreshing, and the 'never lose alone' slogan is justified. The pay is competitive, the management is respectful and still retains the open door and 'walk around' style of the old HP from Bill & Dave. In some places there may be too much management; but most are valid.
Cons
Communication between divisions and homogeny of resources tends to be lacking. (For example, a website with technical resources from one division may be structured completely differently from another division, and they are not linked together coherently. Too many internal tools and processes overlap and change too often, specifically with the complication of the new 'channel partner' initiative.
