The entire tech industry got fat and bloated. Executives grew by purchasing companies, not by enhancing services. Surprised? Hurd gutted R&D and now the company is lagging in many ways. Who knows what the future will bring. IBM is not what it was, nor are many other companies. I'm just glad I'm at the downside of my career. I feel for the young and hopeful who believe the corporate pep rally's. The C level who is entrusted with what was once a very innovative firm, lost the vision. I spent most of my career in small business. Very competitive, but very energizing. Big Corporations depend on those they treat with the least respect to support the bureaucracy created by management. Overhead is a killer. HPE is still operating with the management and overhead of a 300,000 employee company. Good luck. The margins are too high to compete. Production works for Legal and Accounting, well, refuse enough investment and projects and there'll be no production to work for Legal and Accounting.....
