Pros

Great high tech engineering corporation. World leader in test and measurement. Worldwide opportunities, get to work with global teams. Laid back and open door culture. Cool products.

Cons

For business jobs it seems like you are just a number. Lots of changes going on since the split. Difficult for a raise or promotion that you have earned. Difficult for many jobs to be able to travel to other locations and learn about the company and work on projects/assignments. A lot of employees are very quiet, and a little socially awkward. Difficult to say hi to someone walking in the hallways unless you know them from working with them or helping them. No real opportunities to learn about the products unless you are an engineer/designer etc. Fairly "old" company, people set in their ways. Hard to change. Not too many young professionals. Most jobs are stressful.

Pros

Intelligent people carried over from Hewlett Packard and Agilent Technologies. Cutting edge technologies using differentiating, proprietary in-house processes and manufacturing. Benefits are still good for the older tenured employee.

Cons

Company trying to reinvent as growth play, when historically has been a value holding. Significant downward pressure on expense control and longer work hours. Emphasis seems to be on overseas growth while stateside it is stagnating.

Pros

Solid mgmt is not going to make any rash decisions to sink the ship. Still embrace much of the HP culture of valuing & respecting employees. Company core biz has been around for 50+ years and will likely be around for some time.

Cons

However, steady as she goes can be boring if you like a higher risk company willing to really shake things up. Competition is intense from companies who are more focused on producing competing products that do 80% of our high end products at 50% of the price, putting pressure on margins.
