Technically, not decimated (that would imply a decima - or 10% cut) - it was a 50% cut. If you are with HPE you should really think twice about the future of your career. The company has no commitment to growth and we are turning into an IBM-like... — read more

HPE is selling close to 1500 3pars a month currently and is hiring more agents, although they are 6 month contractors to perm to support it, so they are not giving up on it. Storage might be the only area in HPE that looks good for now.

What will happen to storage? Execs are being shuffled around on a weekly basis. People are "retiring" to move on to different ventures as they put it. What will happen to 3PAR, which is supposed to be the biggest storage program? What about Storeserv... — read more 

Any advices on how to quit from HPE? Is there a minimal time that you got to stay at HPE? Are there consequences after leaving? Thanks.

I heard a rumor that there will be massive layoff in Manila. I hope they consider trimming the management level roles first because they don't add much value to the organization. This is just my opinion.

HPE have started a massive wave of layoffs. Will post more details as I find out what they are. Difficult to understand why now, since a recent spin off brought in 2.5 billion and the company has no room for cuts to maintain operations. Executives... — read more

Does anyone know if there will be any change in status for people who were WFR'ed by HP after the CSC-HPE merger? Will the new company allow former employees of HP/HPE to work or contract there?

I recieved an unofficial layoff notice this week, but was wondering if anyone knows when we will actually get the paperwork.
