Good job guys! Keep it up! Great leaders lead to great results! You guys are ki-ling it!

Down 9% on opening. Is the jig up at IBM? Will they hit the RA button to try and salvage this sinking ship?

I heard from my colleague at IBM that a layoff is coming. Has anyone heard the same, or is it just a hoax? After the Oracle layoff, everyone on my project is worried.

Anyone who tells you IBM cares about your career is lying. There's no interest in developing people. None. The only focus is the stock number and the people at the top getting wealthier. Everything else is noise.
