Thread regarding Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) layoffs

Starboard has bought a $124.7 million stake in HPE.

I have the gut feeling Meg's endorsement to Clinton won't go without consequences... I see this as a beginning of several moves to take her out of any future potential public or private leadership roles.

"Starboard is known for buying up stakes in publicly traded companies that it views as being improperly managed or undervalued, and then launching efforts to shake up those companies boards of directors."

I read this article yesterday: http://www.cio-today.com/article/index.php?story_id=100006J0HHNS which gives a little more information their business model. I don't think it has much to do with politics, just a business opportunity. The question is will Starboard revamp the company (what's left) or just finish the sell-off process. It'll be a moot point for me because I will be dealing with the NewCo.

I don't doubt it. Everything she has done is pick apart a once great company, sold it off in pieces, enriched herself greatly in the process and returned very little actual shareholder value.
