Pros

Mature company with decent name recognition.

Solid products, but they are becoming obsolete.

Medium compensation.

Cons

Most important point at HPE: managers rise to the level of their incompetence – the Peter Principle.

Managers select teams based on loyalty to the manager. Cover-ups of bad performance occur individually and regionally.

HPE is obsolete, and customers are moving to the cloud.

Unfair territories.

Advice to Management

Replace all middle management, and not with your supporters. There should be an audit process on promotions so managers can't hide their incompetence.
