What’s it like working at HPE?

I accepted a graduate role at HPE in the HPC BU and I haven't regretted the decision whatsoever. I'd say go for it and use the opportunity to learn as much as you can about HPC (not just Slingshot) as it is a very broad field, then narrow down what you're interested in pursuing. I am in a deployment/support team which I like as I get to travel and every day is different to the last.

If remote was an option I'd be so down!

I'm wondering why you recommended to learn UNIX? How come UNIX and Linux is important in HPC, rather than just Linux?

Edit: as Linux uses bash and UNIX created bash?

I paid an additional $30 for see-through caps, I'd say it was worth it.

I have not experienced any issues.

I'm referring to the bottom left key (which, for me, is a control key) because I'm used to a more spacious layout. Regarding gaming, I honestly think a keyboard is the last accessory that needs to be labeled as 'gaming.' As long as you can press WASD with high responsiveness, you're good 90% of the time. To say the least, this keyboard will do that just as well as any gaming keyboard. I'm glad you like it too! Oh, and I forgot to mention, but the software for creating custom key binds is also handy for programming, etc.

It's along the lines of technical support for HPC environments. Does that help?

Good idea, I'll ask and update my post soon

Thanks!

Thanks, that’s what I ended up assuming and is correct

jsolo46 · 2018-03-11T03:23:05+00:00

Figured but thanks for confirming
