Pros

Home office Good pay & benefits

Cons

Recent internal changes announced without mercy to the crowd. No consulting. They took everyone by surprise and left a bitter taste to many. Many layoffs of competent and key people to save costs, leaving those remaining desoriented and overloaded with work. I once thought I would finish my career working proudly for Agilent. Today I’m reshaping my résumé and testing the water. Have lost the motivation to work hard. If only those key changes had made sense, many employees would have digested them eventually, but no.

Pros

Flexible start time and opportunities to make up missed time.

Cons

A lot of time is spent on gossiping about coworkers, manager included. If you don't want to involve yourself in the gossip and just focus on work, you will become the focus of the gossip. This will make it very hard to succeed in your position as you will be targeted and coworkers will refuse to cross train you. All team members are supposed to cross trained but you will be "forgotten" and you will be penalized for it.
