And exactly how many managers will get the boot?
What's that? None
Par for the course.
HP are doing that Compaq and before them DEC did. Cut the people who actually do the work and hope that contractors will fill the void while getting their rates cut mid contract.
There is a reason why I've said NO to HPE at least four times in the last year. I'd rather be on the bench than work for that lot. The last days of DEC were not pretty. I managed to survive until 1998 when despite my whole team making lots of money we were given the boot by Compaq. What is happening at HPE is all just far too familiar. Gives me the shivvers.
God help all those left (helloooooooooo is there anyonw there) to pick up the pieces.
