I can't quite put my finger on what company he might be talking about. Can somebody help me out here?

The guy that wrote the article couldn't have stated it better. He described exactly how all of this will end... Pretty predictable, though. He didn't discover America...
To the person that had been WFR'd in October...I see that you lost a lot. For your own benefit, put the layoff behind you. If you haven't already, bring your hard earned talent and skills elsewhere. Be positive presenting your work experience (think of your contributions to products/services and teams). I know first hand of people that lost good job opportunities for mentioning their unhappiness with previous companies/management. Don't let this experience continue to damage your life. Best of luck.
I can only dream of turning this viral, to teach Goliath (aka HPE and HPQ) a good lesson by turning it into a PR nightmare. I know it won't happen, but that would be so satisfying. I asked a few friends to share this on their FBs and Twitter accounts, and forwarded to a friend that works at CNET. He told me that if it becomes a trend, they would write about it. Dreaming doesn't cost a dime... HP, thank you so much for laying me off last October. I got divorced. I lost my house. I don't have my kids with me. My credit is worthless. I can guarantee that as long as I live I won't ever buy again an HP product, and will make sure to influence in any way I can having others do the same.
It's sad to work at a Company that has become the joke of the Industry. I can't wait for Services to be spin-off...
Who can understand this crazy Company... I've been basically begging for a WFR for the last three years. My husband and I relocated to a non-hub location while ago, and even with that, they don't want to give me the package. My boss has told me repeatedly that if I want to resign I am more than welcome to do so, but with no WFR benefits. I have been here for years, and I deserve getting that money compensation. This Company is doomed.
Meg will destroy this Company. It's for her best interest to screw up what remains of HP. She will make tons of money. She doesn't give A CRAP for the employees or the Company legacy. This guy didn't have to be Nostradamus to predict how this will end.
Are you kidding me? :D Obviously HP!! I like the guy. He trashed the Company in a weird, sick, "elegant" way. If this was his revenge... HE... WAS... GOOD!
It looks like he had plenty of fun writing it. At least to me, it looks pretty obvious he threw a good jab at HPQ, HPE, and even Dell!
