Pros

Work life balance (more life than work). Pay good.

Cons

No one has a sense of urgency at HP, hence getting killed every day by competition. Even when great products are launched, no one knows about it. Nothing gets done on time - product development, support, billing, collections. No RSUs or stock except for the inner circle. Health care sucks compared to other employers (you pay too much for not a good United Health plan) Employees generally not motivated. Operations and support non-existent. Makes silly decisions like selling the most profitable part of the company in a fire sale (e.g. the Open Text sale). Paid $5B for the unit (pro-rated based on revenue), ran it completely down and then sold to Open Text for $170M in a graveyard sale.

Pros

Good working culture. It falls a little prey to acting like we're a family and not a business, but at least it doesn't pretend "we work hard, we play hard".

Cons

ELT and upper management have zero vision for the company besides desperately trying to pull up stock prices. Company continues to make deep long-term sacrifices for short term gains, that barely rise above the performance of our competitors. Benefits weaken each year. Example: CVS Caremark now handles RxD insurance, and CVS Caremark is incompetent and exploitative.
