This deal is making me even more worried

I’ve been anxious about the future of this company ever since it clearly started its downward spiral. On the surface, this deal may look like a resolution, but to me it feels more like a continuation of the agony. More uncertainty, more stress, more pressure - and with the new owner, motives and practices are very much in question. I can only hope the transition works out for at least some of us, but honestly, I’m doubtful.


It's almost funny

When the acquisition of Albertsons fell through, I celebrated, because I thought we were saved from layoffs. We all knew it would be bad if the merger went through, but since it didn't, we were good. It's not so good to wake up one day and realize how stupid you've been.


When IBM will be acquired

IBM will likely be sold off in pieces and what’s left, acquired, much like Digital Equipment Corporation and Sun Microsystems. Two once great companies with some brilliant people that had strategic plans that failed to pivot in time for the way the marketplace was going. I loved working for DEC, until we started losing money.
