According to Reuters, people familiar with the matter said that two of HP's leading executives would leave the company before CEO Whitman Meg Whitman. Tode Bradley (Todd Bradley) and David Donatli (Dave Donatelli) have had several job interviews over the past few months, according to four people familiar with the situation. Bradley and Donatli were former heads of HP's PC and Enterprise group services. They were yesterday's star of HP. At present, both are awaiting confidentiality agreement to the lower limit of the sale of shares of the grant. It is rumored that HP has given its shares to two people to leave the company in order to keep them quiet after leaving office. The person familiar with the matter said Bradley would leave HP by the end of February. He will get a 12 million-dollar company with restricted shares. Donatli will remain in HP until March, leaving compensation between 8 million and 10 million dollars. It is reported that the two people had reached an exit agreement with the company last summer. The reason for delaying the departure is that both sides want to minimize public concern. Since Whitman took charge of HP in 2011, industry watchers have included Bradley and Donatli in the potential executive teams of technology companies such as Dell and Juniper NX. Whitman has made an all-out reorganization of the group after becoming CEO. The departure of the two HP veterans will be likely to make Whitman's impact on the company even bigger. Currently, Whitman's five-year plan to achieve HP's revival is in the medium term. Bradley was the head of HP's largest department of PC and equipment. During his leadership, HP's PC division's performance stalled for years. Not long ago, Lenovo was replaced by the largest PC ship maker. He left the head of the PC department last June, and his authority was reduced to the Chinese business. The corporate sector under Donatli a 9% drop in revenue last year for HP's third finance. It also makes Donatli's departure an unavoidable fact. After Whitman attributed HP's quarterly earnings to the corporate services sector, Donatli was transferred to the investment arm, which is responsible for finding start-ups. The Donatli had asked to divest his department from the company, a person said, but Whitman dismissed it. HP declined to comment. Michael Thacker, a spokesman for Hewlett-Packard, said in Tuesday that "Todd and David were Michael Sach because their pace failed to keep up with the planned recovery plan, and Whitman wanted new leaders to replace them." "This is Hewlett-Packard's first public comment on the departure of two people. Sark declined to confirm the rumours that two people would leave the company and declined to comment on HP's allegations of sealing fees for the two men. Neither party has responded to the matter. Two people familiar with the two executives said they did not approve of some aspects of Whitman's vision. Whitman wants to transform HP intoA server provider, company-level storage and network service provider, not a mobile computing company like Apple or Samsung. When asked about such disagreements, Sark said the board and all management, including Donatli and Bradley, were on the same side of Whitman's strategy. Two people close to the situation said the two had stopped working at HP a few months earlier. Sark insists that they are still working for HP. At present, it is not a certainty that these two will leave Hewlett-Packard, according to the person familiar with the matter. But two of people are already actively looking for their own homes. Over the past few months, they have had active contact with headhunters and the company of intent. 2011 Bradley was responsible for the development of the HP Touchpad Tablet project, which lasted 6 weeks. In the end, Hewlett-Packard only reaped the embarrassing result. At that time, HP's CEO was Leo Apotheker. HP has planned to divest the PC business. "After Ms. Whitman took office, the elderly were kept in their posts for a while," said one person familiar with the matter. He said that the departure of the management staff mainly reflects his performance level, and is not a simple staff cleaning. (Prosperity Tea)
