Horrible work culture and work/life balance - R&D Engineer Keysight Technologies Employee Review

Pros

Pay and benefits Flexibility (pre-covid)

Cons

Culture - there are literally people yelling at each other during meetings. Teamwork - There is none, at least if you work on the business licensing team. Management keeps employees around who lower the morale of everybody. Management - They don't care if the role is the right fit for you. They'll hire you for one role, then make you do another that you never signed up for. Work-life balance - Tons of late night, early morning, and weekend work with no additional compensation. It's expected.

Pros

One star for the amazing people, one star for paycheck.

Cons

When I left, it took at least a month to decompress from the toxicity. KGM reorgs were a regular occurrence (5 in a 2-year span, for example) resulting in colleagues reappearing in roles in which they have no experience or disappearing all together. This created a culture of constant backstabbing and insecurity. Leadership picked favorites, ignoring the talents of many and this was reflective in bonuses. They undervalue and lose a lot of talented people, and it continues in spite of their recent positive quarterly reports. Reactionary marketing strategies result in a lot of wasted time and work. Read the rest of the reviews before taking on a role here. You will see a pattern.
