Guide to the HP (and HPE) Alumni Association - for Non-U.S. Alumni.

Operated by former U.S. HP and HPE employees -- and those in the process of leaving. Not officially endorsed or supported.

The HPAA is U.S.-centric. Alumni from outside the U.S. are welcome to join -- but generally find that the HPAA emails and online forums are not useful to them. HPAA membership is not required to join our worldwide LinkedIn group or to use this website, which includes: employee stock decoder, practical advice on using LinkedIn, and the "ASAP Checklist" for people leaving.


If leaving or recently left, use our ASAP Checklist. Practical advice from HP/HPE alumni on what to do before losing access to company systems -- and in the following few weeks. While most of the details are U.S.-specific, the same fundamental issues apply everywhere. 

Website: Key information from selected forum discussions is summarized on our website. No password required. Major sections: WFR/Leaving, Contacts, Benefits, Medicare, Stock, Pension, Job/Career, Website Index

Even if not currently looking for a job for a job, you need to be on LinkedIn. Reconnect with people who know you and your work. Be found by recruiters. Join "Hewlett-Packard / HPE - Unofficial" on LinkedIn (HPAA membership not required.) LinkedIn works differently than you might think: LinkedIn Tips and Traps


Forgotten stock. You may now have stock in HP, HPE, Agilent, Keysight, or DXC in various accounts – and may not have received cash payouts for Micro Focus and Perspecta. Due to spinoffs and splits, current cost basis depends on when you acquired each block of shares. Members have found that plan administrators, transfer agents, and brokerages vary significantly in how (or if) they track gain/loss and cost basis for the many complex HP-related stock events -- and what (if anything) they report to the IRS.
