Pros

Actually 40 hours per week. Work-life balance. Family Friendly opportunities to move between teams are there. At least feasible options.

Cons

Pay is poor. They keep you at about 0.8 for their compensation ratio, which is a standard across other tech companies. We are stuck in the past. Keysight is going downhill as a company. No more innovations and leading the market in their future from what I can see. Our team uses C++98, and works on systems that went obsolete decades ago. Professional development is poor - people here are lazy and don't want to learn. It bothers me to my core. I wish we went on even the most relevant conferences on occasion. The site in Colorado Springs is old and dying.

Pros

One star for the amazing people, one star for paycheck.

Cons

When I left, it took at least a month to decompress from the toxicity. KGM reorgs were a regular occurrence (5 in a 2-year span, for example) resulting in colleagues reappearing in roles in which they have no experience or disappearing all together. This created a culture of constant backstabbing and insecurity. Leadership picked favorites, ignoring the talents of many and this was reflective in bonuses. They undervalue and lose a lot of talented people, and it continues in spite of their recent positive quarterly reports. Reactionary marketing strategies result in a lot of wasted time and work. Read the rest of the reviews before taking on a role here. You will see a pattern.
