steven36 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 On top of 55,000 or so people already thrown out the door HP will cut between 25,000 and 30,000 jobs amid its restructuring overhaul.The troubled IT giant told analysts in San Jose, California, on Tuesday it will have to make the redundancies as part of an effort to trim $2.7bn from its books.The cuts will take place in Hewlett Packard Enterprise, formed from the HP split that will formally take place on November 1. The other half of the tech goliath will flog printers, PCs, and so on.According to HP CFO Tim Stonesifer, the cuts will bring a $2.7bn GAAP charge with $2.6bn in cash payments to take place over the next three years. Once those charges have been absorbed, HP said it plans to save about $2.7bn annually from the reduced headcount, most of that coming from its Enterprise Services operation.The cuts come on top of the 58,000 jobs HP shed as part of an earlier series of redundancies set to wrap up in late October. The redundancies had been expected from HP as the company holds its analyst day meetings. The key slides on the layoffs are here [PDF] – specifically slide 10. It's suggested the cuts were made after the biz's stock buyback scheme went south in the second and third quarters of this year."Hewlett Packard Enterprise will be smaller and more focused than HP is today, and we will have a broad and deep portfolio of businesses that will help enterprises transition to the new style of business," said HP enterprise CEO Meg Whitman."As a separate company, we are better positioned than ever to meet the evolving needs of our customers around the world."She also likened the $4bn in annual revenue HP Enterprise Services has lost since 2011 to water draining from a bathtub.
