Not a good work environment
Mechanical Technician (Former Employee), Houston, TX – May 16, 2013
Pros: meet some good people
Cons: not a good work environment if you were a contractor
It is hard to provide a typical work day because I was most of the time I was there I did not have work. The little we were able to work was spent trying to keep busy so you were not sent home. This was a very easy job for a person that had any type of electronics training. When there was work I was responsible for verifying the quality control measures – more... were in place for all the equipment test racks that were built. I would train personnel on how to use the proper build procedures and what the equipment they were trying to wire up. – less

Work with a variety of vendors all over the nation.
TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANT II (Former Employee), San Carlos, CA – May 16, 2013
Pros: i was able to work remotely out of my home.
Cons: i worked long hours.
I would start my day by attending meetings; work with the project manager, vendors and client. I would document what my projects involved, time frame requested, vendors that would be needed, contact info and what was requested from the customer, along with what was expected from me, from start to end of the project. I learned that no two projects were – more... the same. Management had an open door policy, co-workers were always very helpful and available via instant messaging. The difficult part of the job was when we would have a freeze in the work force with no advance notice delaying all the jobs, forcing a domino affect in rescheduling everything. The most enjoyable part of the job was working as a team and seeing all the pieces fall into place. – less

Good pay, fast paced environment
Business Operations Project Manager (Former Employee), Fort Collins, CO – May 15, 2013
Pros: good pay
Cons: job uncertainty
As an employee at HP, over the last 15 years has been quite challenging and stressful due to changes at the senior management level and the number of large acquistions. This created job uncertainty at ALL levels.
The good thing about HP is there is always something to do or needs to be done. Being an international company I was able to interact with – more... other employees all over the world. – less

I loved getting the oportunity to further my education in a field I loved.
Machine Operator (Former Employee), Loveland, CO – May 14, 2013
Pros: getting oportunity to go to school and better myself.
Cons: cons were not practicing what i went to school for which is why i changed jobs.
I learned so much from my co-worker mentor in the machine shop. He took me under his wing and taught me everything I needed to know that school hadn't. Manage was good to the point of my job not so good about letting me practice what I was going to school for. Hardest part of job was not getting to practice my trade. The most enjoyable was learning – more... to do sheet metal work in the slow times. – less

complex company with several big and small acquired companies
Finance Manager (Former Employee), Sunnyvale, CA – May 14, 2013
Excellent protfolio of products and a very smart and seasoned workforce. However, mismanaged strategy, inability to step off shareholder pressure to follow through on strategic development endeavors, continuos reorgs & management changes have drained it of employee values and sales force morale.
Declining revenues leading to extreme cost cutting measures – more... has taken its toll on an already lean and mean work set up. – less

Overall working with the people I had been with for a number of years.
Logistics Business Analyst II (Former Employee), Andover, MA – May 14, 2013
Pros: flexable schedules and a great boss.
Cons: the company did not think of the value of the employees.
A typical day at work consisted of daily morning SQL uploads and reporting for the business.
I learned quite a bit from fellow employees on different areas of the business.
My manager was great, but upper management was not to good to the employees or with the business itself.
The hardest part of my job was working with multi-country data feeds, but – more... was fun to keep learning.
The most enjoyables part of my job was helping people with issues and creating job streamlining to make my job and their jobs much easier. – less

Applications and Icc Color Specialist- Travel (Current Employee), Alpharetta, GA – May 10, 2013
Pros: got to travel on company dime, and meet new people to help and train
Cons: not really a 9-5 since we are helping people all over the country.

Another Time where I can't believe I get paid to do this
District Training Manager (Former Employee), Alpharetta, GA – May 10, 2013
Pros: being the man
Cons: did i mention that companies sometimes do not know what they are doing and cut a program?
Too much to like! I assembled my team of employees along with my team in the retail stores. I set my own hours and I was 'The Man'. I greatly enjoy the creation of a solid team that works together for a common target. And the great part was that I got paid to do this, set my own hours/week, and enjoyed the comradeship of other near me on the team.

Great place to work
Field Service Engineer (Former Employee), Eastern Shore, MD – May 9, 2013
Pros: company vehicle, flexibility of work schedule to be able to do everything with my children.
Cons: company has suffered dramatically due to poor executive management decisions.
Early on it was a great place to work. Very busy and covered a very large territory of the state of MD. After a few years things began to fall apart within management. My immediate manager quit, the manager that took over was too much of a micro manager to the point our service level began to lag and customer support fell off dramatically. That manager – more... quit along with 90% of mid to upper level management. I was released on a Work Force Reduction program as the company restructured after falling short of their goals. – less
