HP's plan to shift workers off its payroll and have them work as contract workers for a partner named Ciber isn't going exactly as planned, multiple sources have told Business Insider.
HP didn't actually follow through with its threat to fire all of the employees if they refused the new job offer. A few of the employees who refused the new offer are now being asked to stay on at HP as if no layoff ultimatum ever happened.
To recap: HP told several hundred employees in its Enterprise Services division, HP's consulting unit, that HP had lined up a new job for them.
They would by hired by HP's partner, Ciber, and continue working with HP customers as contract laborers.
On the one hand, a job offer is better than a pink slip. On the other hand, the new job wasn't all that great, employees complained to us. The new job came with a severe pay cut, often 30% -50%, employees told us. Plus, they would become new employees at Ciber, losing their seniority, with severely reduced vacation days and a loss of other benefits.

NEWS FROM CNN MONEY IN 2005:

TITLE: Carly may get $42 million
Ex-Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina will get a severance package worth about $21.4 million, but stands to reap another $21 million after she was forced out by the computer maker’s board last week, a newspaper reported Saturday.
_____________________________
I’d volunteer to get fired for just a tenth of that severance :)
This has nothing to do with Carly. She hasn’t been at HP for 10 years. This is Meg and her incompetent management team.
This is the HP board of directors, doing what they have been doing for the last 20 years. When Trump’s companies failed he also, being the big kahoona, paid himself very well, all four times. Support Trump if you want but do it with an understanding of who and what he really is.
This is not directed at you, pas, but all the Trumpsters listening in. You seem to understand what is really happening.
