I'm fed up with the lack of consideration for us regular employees
It's like a game of musical chairs with the C-suite, and we're the ones left standing without a seat. This whole integration mess with Poly/HP has been a nightmare. It feels like they're just shuffling people around without even asking us how we feel... — read more

HP is in for a world of hurt in 2024 and beyond
True innovation is a thing of the past for HP, Print is dead, Dragonfly is a joke, HP marketing is substandard, and AI will soon render many standard PCs as useless. Only a fool cannot see the writing on the wall for HP. Layoffs will definitely... — read more
Management layers should be thinned out
If we have layoffs in our future - and let's be realistic, we all know we will - then the right move would be to thin out management layers. HP does have fat, and that fat is concentrated in the bloated management. Those are the types of layoffs I... — read more

HP Applause Only Culture?
With recent reorgs, I'm now working within the broader Consumer Services group. It seems despite the many delivery delays/issues, there is a pervasive Applause Only Culture where even any even valid debate/discussion is strongly discouraged.
WFR and the In Crowd
I'm relatively new at HP (print software) and in a group with lots of old timers (20+ year tenure). They constantly take credit for my work and hint that they are "protected" against WFR as part of the "In crowd" while those with shorter tenure like... — read more
