What is this ?, "dinobabies", "There’s many more. Just need to get subpoenaed" and "Whoops!", that shows a complete degradation of people who put these comments, they are probably Americans. We need more young and brilliant Indian people at IBM.

That does not depend on a country of origin, I know many Vietnamese people working at IBM for 40 years and they are very narrow minded people and short in their thoughts ( probably experience too ) not trying to put any energy for creating Slack messages. They are certainly should be out of IBM.

@ap to anyone saying that someone over 40 has nothing left to offer … well, let’s see how you feel when YOU reach that age. Are you planning to quit working then? Do you realize your own parents still need to work in order to put you through college and help you survive until you’re financially independent? Which these days takes longer and longer!

Why are messages so short, ( please note that this message is not short ) probably because American people are very minimal in their expression to show their dissatisfaction, maybe IBM is very very right to fire all American people and instead to hire young and brilliant Indian, Chinese and Vietnamese people. BTW they represent IBM mostly ( Indians > 50%, Chinese > 30% and Vietnamese > 10% ). Plus, as it is practiced and promoted at Intel, people after 10 years of service or after they are 40 years old they start doing nothing and start playing political games, why? because they just get bored after spending 10 years with a company, they cannot bring anything more significant value to the company. Plus, now, AI is able to do most of the work those 30-40 years old workers do and AI learning phase is now very short, just few days, especially enough to learn the IBM technology because it is not a rocket science, for learning it you do not need to drive the whole US to teach autonomic vehicles and then to drive them without a driver. That is a very good pattern to copy to start driving IBM technology without those 35-40 years ( not the old years ) but serviced with the IBM company. Please, be more expressive if you care about IBM future.
