It's not like those people were just sitting around doing nothing. So I guess it means HP's business has taken a dive.

I also read that HP is going to direct its business to a different direction, so maybe they're laying off in the divisions they are going to steer business away from.

All those people without jobs. How sad. The suffering, the futures ruined for those who don't find jobs soon and have to use their savings to live.
