Thread regarding IBM layoffs

This is less and less a tech company

Someone made an excellent observation that executives seem to see IBM more as a financial company and less of a tech company. Since when is it like that?
That disappointed me quite a bit. When I applied here, my expectations were completely different.

Every tech company that survives long enough goes through these life stages:

  • run by engineers
  • run by marketing
  • run by managers
  • run by finance
  • run by legal
  • run into the ground

IBM is currently in the transition between "finance" and "legal"

OP, you applied at IBM... did you get a job? If yes, then it is time to look elsewhere. You clearly see that this IBM company is a farce, don't you?

I thought they dropped all the tech and are now a cloud company
