There was a lot of noise on this website about the emperor doling out mid year bonuses. The emperor and the cronies made a big deal about it at the coronation as well. All a bunch of lies. Looks like the cronies like may and june have been feeding... — read more 

I personally think that the reason WHY HPE top mismanagement can NOT get acquisitions to be successes, is flat-out arrogance! They immediately think that they know more than the experts at the company that they just acquired, and that they can lay... — read more

Carly introduced unlimited sick time, I wonder if the Emperor has included FTO along with it. DXC recently implemented unlimited FTO. I heard only at a max of 2 week increments and depends on "business needs". I expect the Emperor will bring... — read more 

It's been a long time since I read something positive about HPE. Not that I think this changes our situation in any way, but it was a nice distraction for a moment. HPE shines in IDC Converged Systems tracker, Cisco does not... — read more 

I do know this much… About 1.5 to 2 years ago (or so???) there was a big push to get rid of all or almost all USA contractors. Now lately, there are a TON of in-house (and low-paid, you bet!) contractors in Houston, for example. So there’s one place... — read more 

Wow, a 5-day stretch without any postings about hpe! Perhaps the bleeding has finally slowed down or stopped?

My position was eliminated in Provo, UT office 3 months ago. I just heard that more were let go after me. It seems they are spreading it out as to not appear to be doing one massive layoff. No bonus payouts last year... No merit increases haven't... — read more

Talk about writing on the wall... Meg just sold another close to 13 million in HPE stock... Meg Whitman had set up such a plan on March 2 and over March 14 and 15, the plan sold $12.7 million in Hewlett Packard Enterprise (ticker: HPE) stock. She... — read more

Thanks for any advice on this. For reference, I was a CE, MCHS, and (was) a DCE.

While life is grand at the San Jose headquarters with new gyms and lavish cooking facilities, the field, the backbone, gets laid off. Monday March 5 we were all notified that we would be outsourced to Unisys.

Reading this board makes me think that HPE desperately needs to clean out its ranks. If there is so many otherwise unemployable people working here (and only people who are completely unemployable can fear layoffs in this economy,) then it really is... — read more 

Why cut itself off from such a huge pool of talent when its meant to such a transformative business ?

Will it close? Will we be moved?

If I am laid off from HPE, can I go and work for HPI? I know I cannot go back to HPE but there is an opportunity with HPI that I'd like to pursue. Any thoughts on this?

Rumor has it that there will be some sort of "push" to turn most or all of GSD into contractors. After The Meggot got rid of ALL (or almost all) of USA-wide contractors about 1/2 year ago, there is now (post-Emperor-Nero) a push to get contractors... — read more

Is HPE done with the 10% workforce cut they announced last November? If not how much more to go? I won't be surprised if they tack on another 10% to the previously announced cuts. It is like rolling blackouts of 2000-2001 in California - borrowing a... — read more
