Hewlett-Packard – “Great Infrastructure, Great Talent but sadly Management is driving the plane into the ground”

Pros

Great infrastructure, Amazing engineering talent and amazing products. Some of the Smartest folks I have worked with worked at HP. Many are gone now but a few remain and they are Gems!

Cons

Sadly the company is now run by "average" self serving Director - Managers. Little to no imagination or risk taking ability. The empty suits are running a great company into the ground.

Advice to Senior Management

Hewlett Packard was a Great company, Since the Aquisition of Compaq "HP" is much less than it was, ruled by the short term, short sighted and generally self serving "director level" managers. Bill & Dave are rolling in thier graves
