EDS staff are today gathering for a "town hall" meeting in Melbourne; however, spokespeople for the company would not confirm whether the issue of pay cuts would be debated.
The Australian division of Hewlett-Packard grew its headcount by 22.9 per cent in the year to 31 October 2008, new documents have revealed, even as the company was finalising plans to cut a substantial number of workers from its newly combined operation with EDS.
EDS union APESMA has met with representatives of HP and EDS today following the news that employees in Australia will be facing pay cuts.
The pay cuts announced by Hewlett Packard global CEO Mark Hurd today will apply to Australian staff at both HP and EDS, according to local spokespeople.
EDS employees in Australia and New Zealand have received an email from local EDS chieftain David Caspari which explains what the planned global pay cuts will mean for them.
