No bonus and no hike
I have been at HPE for a few years now. Even my worst years I've got decent bonus but this time no bonus and no hike. Is this common for others too or am I on the next WFR list?
HPE chief Antonio Neri was awarded $20.06 million in compensation
HPE boss Neri bags 15% pay hike in 2023 as targets ticked CEO-to-grunt pay ratio now 300:1 as wider workforce gets 4.4% more than year earlier HPE chief Antonio Neri was awarded $20.06 million in compensation for the company's last financial year — read more
Successful fiscal year, bonuses not fully funded
Antonio strikes again!
Well, it was another record quarter!
I wonder if we will lay-off as many as we did the last time we had back-to-back record quarters.

HPE SKO 2025??
Any plans for SKO? JNPR SKO is set for January, and the rumor is that HPE will be included. I assume that won't be confirmed until the deal is approved, but I'm curious if there are other HPE SKO plans. Likely just BS though

HPE among the best workplaces for technology in 2024
How did this happen? Who did they ask? I want a word with those employees. HPE does an excellent job with Employee Resource Groups to help build the culture. Executives support the initiatives and the ERG leaders host events that make everyone feel... — read more
I get a kick out of people who bust their behinds at work

Layoffs
Layoffs yesterday and today at HPE
What is HPE's WFH policy?
JNPR says 2 days a week in the office, and some groups provide lunch. What is it for HPE?
HPE CEO doesn't care about y'all!!!
Antonio Neri doesn't care about y'all... Let me remember. You'll get 2 week's to "train your replacement", but you'll use any vacation you have available and then you'll have 2 more weeks to find a job inside HPE. That means you're either in... — read more
Question regarding the layoff notice in HPE
I got 2 weeks notice only on April 8 and I was told - you don’t need to work in the following 2 weeks and your last day in HPE is April 19 and then layoff package starts for 11 weeks, I have no chance using my vacation PTO , Is this illegal?

HPE Thoughts on Juniper
What is everyones thoughts on the upcoming acquisition of Juniper Networks?
Rumoured 10% in Hybrid Cloud
Word is 200+ people in Hybrid Cloud group alone, about 10%. Should be hearing within a couple of weeks.
HPE is scrounging for another Billion to make the Tu-d Purchase (JNPR) go through
https://www.theregister.com/2024/09/11/hpe_shares_juniper_funding/ There are a lot of warning signs here that this is not a good thing.
Y'all Good Fam?
Title says it all. Cuts are coming and you know that. DELL EMC ships more than HPE now.
Get ready for the anticipated October surprise
HPE's annual WFR's are just around the corner. There is a need to cut as many US based employees as possible to fund executive bonuses and the acquisition of the failing Juniper Networks.
HPE has tried to hide their poor performance for many years.
Well, technically HPE has only existed for 9 years. But trying to hide the long-term serious decline is definitely a thing at HPE. In addition to the layoffs (which actually occur in every quarter), acquiring other companies also hides their poor... — read more
Cisco layoffs -- outlook?

Good news. Marvell is hiring. Check out their site, plenty of jobs.
HPE Should WALK AWAY from Juniper deal
JNPR is a dead corpse of a company and has been for over a decade. The sales pitch the Juniper "Execs" showed HP was based on fairytale projections. This is sufficient reason to cancel / greatly reduce the "walk away" penalty. Juniper is a... — read more
Shareholder sues Juniper over HPE acquisition
https://www.techzine.eu/news/privacy-compliance/116845/shareholder-sues-juniper-over-hpe-acquisition/ He claims the acquisition by HPE was designed to enrich several HPE executives at the expense of shareholders. Something fishy going on here? — read more
Why are we even buying Juniper?
Abyssmal results two quarters in a row. And that's an understatement. Significant product overlap. Wonder at 24 years younger, if Neri is more senile than Biden.
HPE will fail.
http://t.ted.com/myHh8dX Companies do fail. Its a part of capitalism. The average lifespan of a company is 18 yrs. Technically HPE is only 8, but I think that they might pack it in early.
Apply the job in HPE
I was laid off from HPE in this April and I worked there only two years, so I didn’t know this company very well. I applied at least 7 jobs in HPE career website after this April, but I never got any call or email from HPE recruiter, so the rehire... — read more

Why are people afraid to take the full 6 month maternity/paternity leave?
Why don't people ever take the full 6 months of paid leave to be with their family? They are entitled to it, but people seem pressured to only utilize a few weeks of it at most. Are people too afraid upper management will try and use this to... — read more

Blood Bath in June
Aruba SVP is leaving. Is this an indication that something extremely horrible is about to happen? HPE-Aruba revenue fell 17% in Q2, although the overall Q2 was positive.thoughts ??
Antonio Neri really knows how to spin.
"HPE exceeded our profitability expectations and drove near-record year-over-year growth in our recurring revenue in the face of market headwinds, demonstrating the relevance of our strategy,” said Antonio Neri, president and CEO of Hewlett Packard... — read more
It’s going to get bad
Layoffs at levels not seen in many years coming in the fall. Be prepared for the worst. That is the new HPE way. Weak earnings and an inflated purchase of juniper networks means they have to reduce cost.
