"Piffle. Anyone can look good if you choose the right metrics!"
True. But growth in sales are still growth in sales. Revenue isn't profit.
"How many people did they manage to fire in the last 12 months?"
I don't know. How many? You seem to be in the know, so please enlighten.
You're probably thinking of HPE which has had big layoff orgies.

I have no idea. Why don't you tell us or stop with the innuendo.
Then again I'm not working for HP nor am I American so I don't care as long as the products and services offered are not failing me. I'm not against non-white workforce if the results are fine.
As far as I can see, capitalism doesn't mean patriotism. It's about supply-and-demand, and competition in the market. This means not only products and services, but also labor. Do you disagree?
