Pros

I have been working for 11 years at HP while only the last year and a half was spent with the new HP Inc. This isn't the same place I joined. A new hope at the beginning, it proved to be a big disappointment in the end. The only good thing is the work environment which is actually the merit of my colleagues of every HP employee that make this workplace enjoyable.

Cons

Parts of the old Hewlett Packard Company were inherited by the newborn HP Inc, unfortunately not the good ones. Nothing of the initial vision of the founding fathers remained. Their HP Way is just a meaningless word of the past and the new HP became just another corporation that is basing its growth on the exploitation of its people for a handful of rich shareholders. Payment is a joke compared to industry standards and when it comes to promotion or benefits for non american/western employees prepare to see injustice and huge discrepancies. It is like Middle East mentality, it matters what passport you hold. If you're Polish, Romanian or Hungarian just be aware that you'll be paid just a fraction of what your western colleagues are getting. Management naively believes that corporate propaganda will pay the employee bills. It doesn't.

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.
