Pros

- Great set of co-workers. - Pay is in-line with SV area, but they are looking to reduce costs by hiring folks with limited experience. - Most of the products are high quality, stuff you can be proud to work on.

Cons

- No growth plans. The company is poised to shrink 10% a year forever, or until sold-off. - Assume layoffs of 5 to 10% of the organization every year. - Management more interested in politics and appearances than business. - very top heavy, way too many VPs and directors. - The website is embarrassingly bad.

Hi and thank you for your review! We do have amazing people, and thanks for taking a moment to appreciate our benefits, and products. I am bummed to see that you would not recommend HP, especially since you've been here for a while now (congrats on the 10+ years!). ~ Madalina Antohe, Employer brand & digital media leader

Pros

Great work/life balance Competitive Pay A players Manager support Global company Good bonuses

Cons

Goals change so frequently sometimes it felt as though all the hard work was for nothing. Competitive environment so you need to show your value outside of your role to get assistance and build a brand/ name for yourself. Internal opportunities "require" referrals and building rapport with that team. Otherwise your application is ignored. Salary raises are not great so negotiate your incoming salary well. Your direct manager shapes your experience, not a con necessarily. Poor managers or shift in management can impact your experience heavily.
