Pros

Laid-back environment 401k match after 3 years Remote work

Cons

Low pay Management and leadership have no direction for the company. It seems there will be more layoffs this October (2025), but it will likely be the high-performing/high-cost workers again. No opportunities for career advancement. The carrot will be dangled, but they'll always have excuses not to grant you that promotion. Easy for incompetent, lazy, or malicious workers to stay under the radar. Management won't fire them because they're cheap, so they continue to drag everyone else down. HR is completely unhelpful, and will ignore/refer any questions directed to them

Pros

Work/life balance, benefits, salary, managers, culture, purpose, human-driven goals, integrity, engagement, teamwork, compassion, health. Working from home for 5+ years has improved anxiety, wellness, and life balance. Not all jobs can be done remotely, but for those that can, it is a priceless benefit it itself to be able to be productive & undistracted. My team collaborates wonderfully all day despite the distance - they feel like family to me. I love the focus on improving the community. I love the integrity - HP actively fights racism, sexism, bigotry, bullying, & has been going out of its way (especially in the last 5-6 years) to continue to fortify its culture and create a truly diverse workplace. It's paying off. 15 years ago mid- to high-level teams were mostly Caucasian, and today, the teams I collaborate with at senior and mid- levels are culturally/religiously/racially diverse, gender balanced, welcoming, and always include differently-abled colleagues. I really love my job and with 20+ years at HP in many roles (at 3-4 levels), I know the culture well enough to state these things with complete confidence.

Cons

More work than workers! But for me this is a "pro".
