Thread regarding Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) layoffs

More work moving offshore

I don't think any of us are safe from it. At some point, only the C-suite will be based here.

We had an open req earlier this year and interviewed a bunch of candidates. Didn't matter. The skip level manager (an Indian dude) just appointed some guy in Bangalore for the position who we never even considered. I'm still not sure what he does other than copy/post sh-t from Copilot.

@252 It's true and pretty obvious that Indians hire Indians, which excludes a lot of born-here Americans, esp. in high tech management. The trend becomes exponential as they hire and group up with people like themselves.

It's soooo easy to take advantage of white middle class American decency. Noone will ever be fool enough to give opportunity back.

Sarcastic Post on another thread in this blog:

Its common in India to hire millions of white dudes, bring their families over, give them all jobs and let them scam welfare at the same time, put them on path for citizenship, make them managers that play favoritism in hiring, pass out business and home loans indians cant even get while they act like they deserve it the whole time because they are some genius level that doesnt exist there since average IQ in india is like 78. Diversity is number one priority in india thats why teams are 89% white there and just a few native born employees. Its almost like the indian government is behind replacing its citizens with a bunch of foreigners really.

@gh That DEI and feminist agenda is all HP. Compaq also pushed to hire more women and minorities but HP carried that DEI stuff to another level.

HPE acts more Compaq than original HP. Keep the Houston roots. Run it like Bill and Dave actually ran the company, engineering first, no DEI, no feminist agenda, no liberal marketing, no activists hollowing out the legacy.
