Reports Coming in of Big IBM Layoffs Underway in the U.S.
That is a good sign. It means the ship is slowly turning around. It sucks for the employees being laid off, no doubt. However they have to do this. There is no other way. They bet big on support and services in early 2000s. So they have lots of those employees. Could they all start to learn new things adapt to the new environment, yeah, some will but not everyone will.<p>Heck, if they didn&#x27;t lay off people, they&#x27;d still have punch-card machine cleaners and even cheese slicer designers (they used to sell those way back in the day).
