Computer company Hewlett Packard has confirmed it will scrap thousands of jobs in the next few years, with the impact on its Irish workforce unknown.
The news emerges as PC sales worldwide decline due to the cost of living crisis. The company employs a grand total of 50,000 staff internationally, with the planned cuts being phased in gradually until 2025.
Hewlett Packard’s sales initially underwent a hiring spree as computer sales skyrocketed during the pandemic. However, the demand for its products has declined over the past year.
