March 6, 2025
Hewlett Packard Enterprise cut 2,500 employees (5% of staff)
2,500 laid off 5% of workforce Location SF Bay Area

Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced on March 6, 2025 that it would eliminate approximately 2,500 positions, about 5% of its roughly 61,000-person global workforce, over the following 18 months. The cuts accompanied HPE's Q1 2025 earnings report, which showed server division profits squeezed by steep sales discounts and a buildup of older-generation semiconductors as customers waited for NVIDIA's Blackwell GPUs. CEO Antonio Neri attributed the profit decline to those inventory pressures and flagged expected tariff impacts on the company's outlook. Revenue guidance for Q2 came in at $7.2 to $7.6 billion, well below analyst expectations of $7.93 billion. The restructuring was expected to deliver gross savings of roughly $350 million by fiscal year 2027, with approximately $250 million in cash charges hitting in fiscal 2025 and the remaining $100 million in fiscal 2026.

Reason: Declining server division profitability, older GPU inventory buildup, and tariff headwinds
