Pros

Thee work is challenging at times and there are some very knowledgeable people working at HP, but until the executive team puts the right culture in place, most employees will stay disengaged (40-50% of ALL employees are rated as DISENGAGED in the latest VIA Survey and yet no action has taken place to rectify these issues). However, if you look at many of the other similar legacy tech firms they are all facing massive layoffs and struggling to compete. When that happens culture is the first thing executives and managers forget to nurture yet it is the one thing all these companies need most to survive the hard transitions. -Average to above average salary for certain locations -Genuine people that work much to hard for the -Some interesting work but you will pigeon-holed to remain focussed on that work and positioning for 4 years plus

Cons

- Poor recognition or even compliments (and they are free!) - Poor Bonus - Zero equity - No Career advancement or even support - but primarily this is a symptom of a shrinking workforce (As Dion has stated, "You cannot cut your way to growth"...but he sure is trying!) - Lack of any culture and no general executive support to even foster one (e.g. birthday cakes once a month is not culture, folks) - 3-year 401k vesting for the 4% company match - Very little focus on employee well-being - No promotions given during the 3 years I have worked at HP, for myself or anyone in this office!!!

Pros

You won’t find a more resilient, good‑humored, and quietly heroic group of employees anywhere. The real pros at HP are the folks who keep delivering results, supporting each other, and holding the place together — even as they’re asked to smile through baffling executive decisions, absorb constant reorganizations, and “embrace” strategies that seem designed by consultants who’ve never met an actual customer. If you want to work with people who can turn chaos into productivity and still crack a joke about it, HP’s rank‑and‑file are world‑class.

Cons

Despite consistently strong performance reviews and years of dedication at a senior level, HP’s decision to shut down our site while offering “relocation” — at my own expense, and only if I re‑apply for the job I already do — says everything about where this company has drifted. The old CEO’s infamous slip, “In HP Business First… I mean… Customer First,” has never felt more accurate. Leadership is disconnected from the realities employees face, yet continues to bring in PwC and other cost‑cutting consultants to tell them what employees have been saying for years. HP was once a company built on innovation, trust, and people. Today, it feels like a shell of that legacy — driven by short‑term cost cutting, site closures, and decisions that undermine both employee loyalty and long‑term business health. For a company that claims to value its people, the actions tell a very different story. Use caution if you’re considering building a career here. The culture and stability that once defined HP are fading fast.
