I used to work for Compaq, I had a lot of friends at hp. She was not popular with them. As a candidate, she has done very well in interviews.
When you have to make hard decisions to keep the organization afloat, you’re not popular.
That said, the CEO of Intel has stated she saved HP during the dot com bust and positioned HP for long-term success.
I distinctly remember hearing back then, more than once, that she was not pro-life.
I worked at Compaq, then HP both before and after the merger. I was not thrilled about getting laid off in the dot com meltdown (though I got a nice severance and landed a job for more money closer to home). I couldn't imagine ever being willing to support Carly for anything. Then I listened to a few interviews and came away very impressed with her. I am a Cruz supporter first, then Walker, but I could support a Carly candidacy.
