Pros

Worked in Experience Center Barcelona, HP site in Sant Cugat, as part of the Labels & Packaging team, HP Indigo Digital Printing technology. What the position included was designing all sorts of labels and packaging designs that will suit the customer needs and provoke a new conversation in the industry of printing, using modern digital technology instead of the known analog. Offering the customer and the end consumer of a product more enjoyable and more appealing to their personality approach that would change the market vision. Most important task was to welocme customers into the experience center where the team would show all capabilites of the HP Indigo technology, presenting technical details of printing presses as well as their creative features. The HP site in Barcelona is truly a good opportunity for a career development, no matter if you start as a graduate like I did or as more experienced. It offers a good style of living, good salary, good connections and a fancy site with cafes and restaurant for employers to have lunch at.

Cons

The Environment , specifically in the Graphic Experience Center can feel a little closed even though you receive customers from all around the world. It is a big show room of all printing technology, with not daylight comming through, 24 h air conditioned in specific for the machines temperatures, so you need to like technology truly to stay there from 9am to 6pm. Location of Sant Joan might a bit frustrating if you want to live in central Barcelona.

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.
