No one that worked in the Silicon Valley between 1999 and early 2000's can forget the notoriety of Carly Fiorina. While her biography on MSNBC painted a picture of her somehow being the victim of a ruthless board of directors, the employee buzz in San Jose was something else entirely. The Compaq/HP merger was not viewed in any favorable way by those both in HP nor by those who ended up being laid off. I was not one of those people, but the flap was so big over her leadership or lack thereof, that Internet message boards were filled with hate for what she did with HP.

Right on because I lived in Silicon Valley from 1986 - 2013 & was an HPQ Shareholder and I still own their stock... I followed Carly's career at HPQ very closely and knew many employees who were fired by the company

I don't care. I heard her explanation. Those people got generous packages and offerd re training. These people don't whine about all the people that are unemployed because of Obama and his policies.

You may change your mind if former Hewlett Packard employees are called on to discuss Carly on all of the mainstream media TV stations...

Sgt Tom Cunnally - No. I heard everything's when she ran for the Senate. Now I'm waiting to see if Gloia Alread digs up something on her.

TSgt Kenneth Ellis - Or Barbara "Don't Call Me Ma'am" Boxer.. You have to believe Boxer still has hard feelings toward Fiorina because their senate campaign was down in the mud...

I would say that they think she wasn't very good at her job.
