Company has complete abandoned the "HP Way"
posted
on
September 13, 2008
The HP company started to abandon the "HP Way" philosophy during the reign of Carly Fiorina, and it was accellerated under Mark Hurd. They don't even attempt to hide the fact anymore that they think US software engineers are overpaid and are doing everything to discourage them from working for HP so they justify hiring Indian programmers.
The quality of the product has already started to suffer, and will only get worse.
HP is on the downhill slide more...
