Agilent Employer Reviews

Typical day the last year I was at Agilent (temporary position) was mainly assisting vendor managers / contractors, getting them set up from the very beginning to the very last of their requirements to work either at Agilent site of offsite. Management was okay, but didn't really want to listen closely, too busy I presume. Loved my team of co-workers – more...  and they loved me! Hardest part of the job was when there was software glitches and having to wait for resolution of the glitches. Most enjoyable part of my job was a completely successful project completed and the "thank you" that went with it. – less

I worked in Shipping for nine years. Was the RMA coordinator. Which is receiving products back from customers. Inspect them and give to engineer to inspect. Then release credit to customers on Oracle system. Also did cycle count each morning of products. Helped ship products domestic and international. Ordered boxes from vendor for our department and – more...  checked inventory. Also loaded trucks that would go to airport each day. It was a very rewarding job.
I was the only woman in the department and was able to get along with the men. It was a sad day when I got laid off. But I was the oldest in the group. I miss the job. It has been very hard to get another job like this one since being laid off. – less

Organisation has little cumbersome selling methodologies ( dealer products) which impacts achieving – more...  100% customer satisfaction and issues on future deals.

Organisation has better plans for developement of personal skills which really helped me to ensure meet my numbers

Great company to work for but the salaries are low. Management is good from what I've seen. The business is growing so very busy.

I was disappointed at how unorganized they are,,,I worked there 10 sttraight days in Feb as a contractor and day 10 was when I got email, system log in abd started me SAP profile set up, I sat for 10 days with nothing to do....so sad the old HP was never ever like that...

RF - IF equipment primarily. Learned quite a bit about metrology. Management has really got to get in touch with supporting workers needs to complete tasks. Lack of support from management is the hardest part of the job. Most enjoyable part of the job is personal satisfaction from solving complex electronic problems.

Science remains supreme at this instrument company. It was a pleasure to discuss plans and and to help determine the future possibilities. The best part of the job was the ability to set priorities of the daily workflow.

Management by the numbers with no vision on the overall strategy. No commitment to long term goals.

There was cross training at the end. It keep me busy. I liked to be kept busy. It made the time there go faster. They kept me busy.

Agilent is a good company, only that it doesn't offer salary hike each year. Many complain that there is no salary increase within 10 years...

Great company with great benefits and a nice work environment

Great people, great work but not perminate. Very clean company with outdoor pavilian for social gatherings. Cater service for meals. Exercise area and Meetings for updates on all upcoming events.

Received a warm welcome to the work team, given specific instructions for each project, well organized management and staff. Intra-company social events, i.e. potlucks and BBQ's sponsored by the company. Work was pleasant giving a club like atmosphere. It was a joy to go to work each day, no matter what the task. Plenty of appreciation for the help – more...  proferred. – less
