"I've worked at HP for a number of years now, as a contractor in this latest stint, but previously, as a full-time employee.The culture at HP has changed over time. I remember it as a friendly, congenial atmosphere, rather like one big, happy family.At present, the company is still interested in hiring the best and brightest recent graduates, which I admire. But the willingness to separate and compartmentalize important product development functions may hurt them in the end."
