Hello,,, looking into how The Woodlands area has been affected by layoffs. Any info on layoffs (or conversely, good news) at the Spring Lake location?

Who is worse?

Greenlake is a scam.

Maybe Antonio should be laid off. But it should done the same way that he laid off tens of thousands, with “compassion”, “empathy”, “heart”, and with no chance of being rehired by hpe again.

LOL. LMAO even.

After the majority of my team got cut, among which there were many dedicated high achievers, I wonder how the management expects me to do more work than ever. Instead, the remaining employees do only enough to avoid trouble. This is completely... — read more 

I left HPE in 2020 because managers began to leave R & D groups. I was lucky to get a package. I was determined to stay in my home and not relocate and find a job locally. I avoided oil-related companies but I finally found a job that I really... — read more

I was notified on DDay, 10/17 that I was WFR’d. No rhyme or reason on rationale used to decide who was let go. Suppose I drew the short straw. Get your resume ready. If you made it this year, it will probably be next year.

I was WFR’d today. Many other and a major reorg. One hand does not know what the other is doing.

Monday 10/17 will be the day that WFRs will happen. That gives HPE 2 weeks until the end of the fiscal year to get you off the books. As usual this will be a stealth operation and you won't know these people are gone unless you personally know them... — read more 

Is there any chance that they will offer a voluntary separation package? I'm only asking because someone here mentioned this as a possibility, although I sincerely doubt it. Sounds too good to be true.

As happens every year, large scale layoffs will happen in October. They do this so its all on the books for this fiscal year. If your boss ghosts you over the next week or two, you know you'll be getting the call by Columbus Day

It might sound strange but I think there are many people who do everything they think could put them on the layoff list. Package would be the best way out for many. The work here no longer gives any satisfaction, the pay is not adequate. Honestly... — read more 

And it's not going to be good US employees, mark my words. Antonio and senior management have been planning this for a while and WFR will be a harsh reality for many. This a warning to get yourself ready so that it won't be such a shock. Get that... — read more

It is quite clear that they want cheaper employees. What I don't understand is how they still haven't realized that cheaper employees will not solve the problems in this company, of which there are already too many? I think that HPE is becoming... — read more 

Antonio is going to do what he does best, WFR US employees and hire cheap off-shore labor to replace them.

I just wonder how this company can still attract anyone talented. I would not recommend anyone to come here. You?

I know... I know... But still, it's a shame what this company has become when compared to its glorious past. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/top-companies-2022-technology-information-linkedin-news/

I am interested in the experiences of internal candidates. Do internal candidates have a better chance of getting a coveted position? I’m afraid of getting rejected, because then I would very likely have to quit. I'll appreciate any advice.

I'm trying to find a new job as soon as possible. How far are we from layoffs?
