HPE employees 2015-2023

In 2023, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) had 62 thousand employees worldwide. The fiscal year end of the company is October, 31st. HPE is an American technology company that was formed on November 1, 2015, following the break-up of the IT giant, Hewlett-Packard Company (HP Co). Initially producing a range of electronic test equipment, HP Co made its name by becoming one of the leading manufacturers of personal computers (PCs) worldwide, and a global manufacturer of servers, storage devices, and networking equipment, as well as delivering a variety of IT services for both consumers and enterprises. In 2015 along with the HPE spin off, the other company that emerged from the split was HP Inc.

HPE’s business focus

HPE’s business is divided into four segments: Intelligent Edge, Compute, High Performance Computing & Artificial Intelligence, and Storage. The Intelligent Edge segment of HPE touches on key themes including cloud computing and edge computing, as well as network security. HPE's size and spread means they hold sizeable positions in several global markets, notably servers and storage where they face competition from other leading technology firms such as Dell Technologies or Dell EMC, as well as IBM, NetApp, and Lenovo to name but a few.

HP Inc’s business focus

The core of HP Inc's business remains personal systems and the company appears to have ridden the separation without too much disruption to its market position. HP Inc remains one of the major players in the global PC market and its historical market share of around 15 to 25 percent continues into 2023. The company shipped 58 million personal computers in 2019. In addition to its success in the PC segment, the company also maintains a healthy market share in sales of hardcopy peripherals. Both HP Inc and HPE will benefit from the continued strength of the Hewlett Packard brand, which ranks as one of the most valuable brands worldwide.
