Troll crossing Be alert as they are in the rut and are apt to attack protecting their ha--m They are sneaky ba----ds and usually give themselves away via their childish and cruel comments.

Expect IBM to continue downsizing when it favors them. That usually means end of a quarter when they can combine current quarter actions with current quarterly earnings reporting to obscure results.

Expect each new IBM division to attack their head count differently as they are 3 distinct businesses

  1. Consulting will use PIP as performance is measurable via utilization
  2. SW will use layoffs as IBM has two competing go to market strategies and one has to be eliminated (Redhat vs legacy IBM SW)
  3. Infrastructure will use selloff/spin-off/partnership as there is too much IP to be captured to walk away from, without having to take a large write off.
