Hewlett-Packard Employee Reviews for Engineering Consultant

"I love the people I worked with at HP. Very smart and capable. But the procedures stifle the creative nature of engineers. The company leadership at the top level makes decisions that affect people based purely on numbers that will help the short term but will destroy the quality over the long run. The company left so many people go that were great workers making the company money, but the thought was find someone overseas to do the work cheaper. So 15 year vets are replaced with people that don't know anything. The companies that we worked for notice the results have changed right away. Since the savings are not passed down to them they're not happy. Very shortsighted."
