I worked for Snapfish (division of HP) for about six months last year. It was quite disappointing. This isn't a company that's ever going to innovate again.

I worked for Snapfish (division of HP) for about six months last year. It was quite disappointing. This isn't a company that's ever going to innovate again.
I grew up loving HP calculators, and detest anything that doesn't run on RPN. I have an HP-15c app on my iPhone (notibly, not the one done by HP, which is inferior.)
Carly and then Turd killed any sort of innovation in this company. They're purest evil, and I can see why Oracle would like to hire this sort of executive.
- tonystubblebine 16y agoWhy are they evil? Maybe they're just business people. This is an honest question. You're not the only person I've heard react that way. Merely cutting R&D just doesn't seem inherently evil to me, even if it turns out to be the wrong decision.
- pyre 16y agoI think he means 'evil' in a 'you just ruined something that I thought was great' sense.
- IMorgothI12 16y agoNot exactly. HP developed the first Memristor. http://www.hpl.hp.com/news/2010/apr-jun/memristor.html http://www.hpl.hp.com/news/2010/apr-jun/memristor.html
- pyre 16y agoI speculated what he meant, I didn't make the claim myself.
- nailer 16y agoCould mean evil in terms of 'destroying long term opportunity for short term profit'.
