HP is so far from the founders' ethos that hearing people talk about the old days is like looking at pictures of Beirut before the civil war. I have friends who still work for HP, and it's an amazingly toxic environment with absolutely no concern for good engineering or quality products. I honestly think Fiorina and Hurd would have been delighted if they had the ability to fire every engineer in HP and outsource all product development to China.

- tsotha 15y agoThe really interesting engineering that happened at HP was all spun off as Agilent in 1999. What's left is just your garden variety technology company that does a lot but doesn't seem to do any of it very well.
