Hewlett Packard Enterprise

HPE does many things well. And you can learn a lot from working for a large organization. And there are resources to assist in learning.

HPE is going through big changes at this time. If you are looking to get hired in, ask about the merger of portions of HPE with CSC to create a new company.

In general, working for a huge company has its drawbacks. There is much red tape in just about every action. Some simple actions take much longer.

What may take days to accomplish at a small company may take weeks and sometimes months at a massive company. This can be frustrating.

However, there are good reasons for much of the delays of change control processes. Customers have extremely important operations, and HPE cannot afford to have things go wrong. There are many stakeholders, and all must review and potentially have their say in the change. Yet, there are some inefficiencies that could stand improvement at HPE.

There are two horrid inefficiencies that hobble smooth running operations at HPE.

#1 It can be extremely difficult to find the resources that are responsible for certain operations. There are no search tools to discover who to contact, and often one gets sent from pillar to post in fruitless wild goose chases to find the responsible parties needed. There needs to be a tool to see who has what responsibility for what account activity.

#2 Search fails miserably! You can even put into search a commonly known term, and search will often return results that have no bearing on the search terms entered.
