Shameful. HPE bang on about improving quality but close their highly skilled Belfast software quality office to save a fraction of their top line. Beware customers - 3Par quality is about to take a nosedive.

Also a harsh lesson in general corporate sh--iness for the younger engineers some of whom are only a matter of weeks in to their careers after leaving uni. Altogether shameful behaviour.

A text book example of how to wreck a talented and productive office through a toxic mixture of neglect and ineptness. Sometimes its not hard to see why HPE is so deeply in the mire. Good luck to all affected for the future.

Well, the whole office is being culled. So yes if it's 60 people still there. Not a massive number but a big part of the 3PAR team.

Approx. 60 people, the rest already left after seeing the writing on the wall earlier in the year.... So there are still a few thousand still to go world wide!
