Pros

work/life balance. People are more laid back.

Cons

Pay can be low unless you move around.

They get rid of their best people every few years in the never-ending cost-cutting.

Advice to Management

Trying to compete with Amazon is pie-in-the-sky kind of nonsense after you laid off all the best engineers.

While you can try, it is a race between what will tank faster: the server market or HPE's cloud play.

Also, the whole diversity/inclusion push is weird; we already are and have been for many years. Trying to drink Silicon Valley Kool-Aid and virtue signal is just pathetic.

And frankly, your hiring guidelines are illegal, and you will get sued if they are ever published.

Focus on engineering and let your inclusive and diverse workforce do the rest.
