My manager was laid off yesterday and initially thought he left but he posted on LinkedIn stating juniper acquisition . Any other team seeing this ?

This is prolly a d-mb question and might ruffle some feathers but, shouldn't HPE be a major cloud player with AWS, Google, and Microsoft? Was HPE not positioned to compete with those companies?

The fire has started. Account teams are jumping ship during the M&A with Juniper due to incoming expectations being set by leadership. I can't speak for everyone on my team, but after getting 35% back to back quota increases over 3 years, HPE has... — read more

I was laid off from HPE in 2020. I was 55 at the time, and I firmly believe age was a factor. Since then, I’ve seen my old job—or near duplicates of it—posted and filled over and over. I’ve applied 15 to 20 times. Every single time, rejected. .. — read more 

Until ED1 jn November, there’s the chance that layoffs can happen any time, right? As such, if we’re in the US on H-1B, should we cancel all international travel before ED1?

There are a lot of folks on here that have been impacted by layoffs, so why the negative, unprofessional posts by what appears to be gainfully employed HPE employees? Wondering why they are "trolling" on a site that is meant for commentary and... — read more

Over 3 years vs $350M. Means more cuts are coming.

How does HpE handle resignations? If you give two weeks to they get rid of you earlier but still pay the two weeks? I guess there is no more owed vacation pay.

Got the axe today, it does not make any business sense whatsoever. I don't think management knows what they are doing.

How has upper management (SVPs) been able to avoid being affected by layoffs? How effective has their leadership been? Like what are they doing to stay relevant? I've always found that very odd.

Was it just me or did Antonio's keynote seem extremely flat with no substance. Given where the company is at, one would think there would be more exciting news and products coming to market. Very disappointing.

‘You need to have a core foundation which is networking,’ said HPE CEO Antonio Neri. ‘Obviously you are going to see everything we have done with the team with HPE Aruba networking. And obviously we continue to be very excited to close with Juniper... — read more
