Quality of Life Recognition Salary Promotions are not given based on skill Just a number to management unless you've been with the company for 5+ years Must move where the work is even if it won't benefit your outside life Upper management not adapting to the younger employees needs

Pros

- you are empowered as an HP employee to facilitate and make decisions to support the project - challenging projects that lead to educational and professional development - well rounded work environment supported by a structured field and office experience

Cons

- company structure is rigid and slow to change ie: promotions, cm software, professional career path, and general project processes - lots of process structure but confusing and at times unclear direction in roles - salary is not competitive until you receive employee owned stock - can be difficult to leave the company once you have employee stock as this can lead to walking away from a substantial amount of money after investing years of service. (can feel trapped)
