Thread regarding Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) layoffs

HPE’s Whitman Gets $35.6 Million in 2016 After Company Split (HPE, HP,INC)

My Question is, if the company was losing money and they needed to cut expenses, why in the heck did the company give Meg 35.6 MILLION DOLLARS? This is terrible after putting people in the streets with no medical and no job and at the same time hiring offshore. This is totally disgusting and evil corruption on her part and the management team.

Hey HPE, you want companies to transform using your HW/SW when you are adapting to your own needs with the speed of an 8-bit sloth. Talk about speed, agility, dev/ops, anslytics,AI, cloud and you are still relying heavily on Excel. Ah...and your Mktg / sales Ops execs are dragging you down. Digital transformation is a big joke.

It was never said that the company is going badly. They wanted to cut the chaff of a good company, making it even better !

Splitting HP into two companies was never about any kind of greater good. It was about lining a handful of people's pockets. Just like Trump's new tax plan.

The ONLY reason this company still exists is to enhance shareholder and board of directors value. Since we have no product line or service that can achieve this goal the only cost savings comes from chopping... and chopping... and chopping the employees. We are nothing but lint; toe jam; head cheese; lice to these people. The sooner we all understand this and 'produce' accordingly the better we'll rest at night .

You guys are missing everything. She already has $2 billion. This isn't about money. This is the insane ego that drives CEOs. Look how that broad took AMI Semiconductor and sold it into ON Semiconductor in 2008. That was a 40-year old company. Every interview with this female CEO was only about herself. The concept that the company involved other humans was nothing. They were fish in a fish tank. Same with Whitman. She road the gravy train of the 2000 internet explosion and declared herself the intellectual wizard from Venus. If you've worked for HPE these past couple years you've seen the crazy. You've read her postings that are very difficult to understand. If you see a future other than constant layoffs and a massive bizarre change, then you are one happy employee.

To add insult to injury to employees she is planning big layoffs in 4Q2017 are o bolster the stock price. The board said she must increase the stock price by 47basis points and the only way to do it is through employee reductions. They know there is no product innovations left in the company so it's employee layoffs in 2017
