There is no strategy to improve this company
Unfortunately. They do not seem to have any strategy that will bring about any positive changes. Or at least I don't see it....
Sinking ship
The situation is getting worse here month after month. I hope that in 2022 I will not be here but in another company. There seems to be nothing more we can hope for?
November 8th WFR
Anyone else a part of the workforce reduction today? Or just me?
Religious and medical exemptions
Some colleagues who were counting on religious and medical exemption were surprised that they were not approved. Does anyone even know what religious and medical exemptions are approved?
Vaccine mandate
Will they really follow through with placing people on leave dec 8th ? Only providing a 40 day heads up for those without vaccine to figure it out. There’s many reasons beyond the political lens to why someone may be hesitant or unable to vax up ... — read more
Do we know how large was this round?
I think it's safe to say by now it's done, any ideas on how many people total were affected?
Dec 8th - Get the jab or get out
Based on the memo, looks like we finally know where HPE stands. Don't want to lose any revenue from the Gov't so everyone (even teleworkers) must comply or will be placed on unpaid leave.
Was there any indication of impending layoffs?
Usually, we know ahead of time. In the least, there are some rumors circulating. This time I didn't even know it happened until I read it here. Was this a really limited round and that's the reason why there was no chatter before and after it? I'd be... — read more
WFR Oct 18, 2021
Today my number came up. No regrets after 39 years of service. Would have been nice if I could have worked another 2 years but it is what it is. At least my boss told me the reason I got laid off was because of my salary and she had a number to hit... — read more
Dell is eating HPE's lunch and drinking it's milkshake
No noise on the Dell layoff board, all happy over there
October 18th?
Has anyone else heard the rumor of a RIF in NA on 10/18?
Are they really conditioning employment with a vaccine?
Someone here interpreted e-mail in a completely different way than I did. >> However, I can’t believe they just want to know who will be vaccinated by Oct 4th to devise different working conditions and safety measures for others. I may be too... — read more
JH hires the henchwoman. HPC in dire straits
HPC new leader JH has hired his favorite henchwoman as the COO. Now just wait and watch the business crumble and morale take a dip to its lowest levels. AN's worst mistake was to hire JH. Second mistake was to promote JH. Third mistake was to... — read more
I'm exhausted
I need to know if this is a company-wide issue or simply an issue with my manager. I've been swamped with work for the past several months, having to do my usual plus a bunch of stuff dropped on me out of nowhere. I'm talking about things I was never... — read more
Will it ever be better here?
Does anyone have any optimism that it will ever get better here again? I think that almost no one believes in leadership anymore and our leaders are without any vision. There is no clear long term plan... and that says it all. This company is stuck... — read more

Why the he-l are there two Hewlett Packard? Why does the almighty hate us?
Closing a of a site
Long time site 25+ years in Carrollton Texas just north of Dallas TX will be closing its doors before end of 4th qtr. Retaining a handful of HPE and letting go of the rest including many subcontractors. Shame to see more and more places closing and... — read more

Age discrimination
What kind of people are they hiring instead of the talented people they are getting rid off? I am almost certain that a person with a lot of experience and expertise who was paid more costs less the company than a newbie who has almost no... — read more
Under-the-radar layoffs
People who think things are going great and layoffs have been few and far between are not paying attention. There have been constant layoffs at HPE for years, only they are no longer grouped into major rounds. Instead, they are laying off people in... — read more
Blue Cross Blue Shield Settlement ?
Anyone else get the email from Blue Cross / Blue Shield regading a Settelment ? https://www.bcbssettlement.com Do you know if there is monetary award that will be given out to HPE Employees who had Blue Cross / Blue Shield ?
Quarterly results
I think it will be a big debacle. I don’t believe anyone expects anything more than a debacle? The luckiest are those who have left here.
Moonshot retiring, Edgeline now private

No regrets leaving?
I believe there is no one who would want to return here after they've left? If I had known that I would have a much better job after HPE than I had there, I would have left long ago. That’s the only thing I regret, that I didn’t have the courage to... — read more
You can’t get rid of Bain parasites

This company has many things that need to be fixed, perhaps more than good things that are worth staying here for, however, very often those who bring the least value to the employer complain. Everyone who had any value has long since left here... — read more

I've heard we might be looking at another round of layoffs this month. It'd be nice to know if that's true and if it is to get more info on it. I'm betting somebody must know something more. How many will be hit and what will be targeted? At this... — read more
