Hewlett-Packard breakup. On Nov 1, 2015, the legal name of the Hewlett-Packard Company was changed to HP Inc. ("hp" logo, HPQ stock symbol) and a new, completely separate company – Hewlett Packard Enterprise (no hyphen, singular, "HPE" logo and stock symbol) – was spun off. Portions of HPE were later spun off into DXC, which was split up, and Micro Focus, which was bought out. Details: HP Breakup
HP Inc is the overall legal successor to Hewlett-Packard and to companies acquired by Hewlett-Packard before Nov 1, 2015 – such as Compaq, DEC, EDS, Tandem, etc. -- regardless of whether a business unit ended up in HP Inc or HPE. For employees of HP -- and predecessor companies -- who left before the HPInc/HPE separation, responsibility for any health or retirement benefits varies from country to country. For Canada and UK, HPE has responsibility. In many countries, plans were split between HP Inc and HPE. See: Where are my benefits?
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is the overall legal successor to companies acquired by HPE – such as Cray, Juniper, Nimble, etc.
Which HP-related companies have me classified as a retiree or former employee? Due to acquisitions and spinoffs, this may not be obvious. Check here: Which Company

LinkedIn Indicate your work location in the entry for the position to help a recruiter find you. (HP Labs is part of HP Inc; Hewlett Packard Labs is part of Hewlett Packard Enterprise.)
LinkedIn trap: It is easy to wind up listing a position that looks like a fake, such as employment at Hewlett Packard Enterprise before Nov 1, 2015 -- before that legal entity existed.
There is a 500-member LinkedIn group: "HP/HPE Canada: Only for current & former direct employees of Hewlett-Packard or HPE. Unofficial" -- however it has very little activity: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4358315/
