Thread regarding Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) layoffs

Watch out Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Mexico, India, Vietnam, Slovakia, etc.

With Trump winning, offshoring and tax havens will see BIG changes in the next few years. And you know what? It was about time... Nothing personal, guys, but if my job is in jeopardy by you potentially taking it... What do you want me to say... President Trump... President Donald Trump...

Brazil imposes a 40% tax for servicing companies in their country, out of the country, i.e. U.S. That's how they keep the work in Brazil. We in the US could not pass that on to the client and be competitive.

Well, I guess with the bankruptcy Trump is going to bring on America, we're all laid off either way.

Meg will be gone soon. She's made her money and can walk out once all the spin merge is done spin cycling. Enjoy making servers, HPE. I guess the cloud companies will always need those.

Mine too and I live on Puerto Rico. At least you plenty states to choose, here having job is a luxury. When we do not have one, we gladly move to the US.

"And no one has any idea or experience about running the Govt. or the foreign policy"

It doesn't seem like the "experienced" folks in our Govt have been doing a very good job so far, at least for us 99.99 %ers.

Trump wins and its the start of another soap opera now, but this one will be soo good. Guiliani as the attorney general, Newt Gingrich as the secretary of state. Ivanka as the Secretary of Treasury, Trump Jr. as some other Secretary. And no one has any idea or experience about running the Govt. or the foreign policy. This is going to be so much fun, cannot wait for it to get started.

Too bad for Granny that she could not get an office without actually having to run for it.

I for one am glad that Trump won. After Clinton made that B line to Whitman after the final debate, my vote was cast for Trump.

I wonder if Trump will invite Whitman and Fiorina to join his cabinet... A new era begins... But no change for us here at HPE. The hope of having a new CEO disappeared last night. HPE won't exist anymore past 2018...

@KhhOzp1-rmr:

"Jobs will come back to the US only when Trump eliminates the minimum wage, allowing Americans to compete with Global workers on an even pay scale"

You are welcome to work for the same money as an Indian or a Chinese.

In fact HPES would love you to do so.

Well done for coming up with the solution to your economic problems.

Wrong. When he leads the way with getting rid of the tax incentives for big business to offshore all of their jobs. Like the one you have at HPE (if you haven't lost yours already).

Yes, I'm sure a guy who lies as much as Trump will actually follow through on his promises to the working class while campaigning. No way would he just say those things to get elected and then blow them off.

I can guarantee you that if tax benefits are taken away and offshoring is heavily taxed, jobs will come back to the US. Economics 101...

Why do people think a billionaire tax cheat is going to do anything but give even more power to corporations (and multinationals) to continue raping the American middle class?

He built his new hotel with illegals. He's NEVER treated his employees with an ounce of decency. SMH.

Meg wins this race either way... under Trump she'll get to press the thumb even harder. Under Clinton, she gets a cabinet seat.
