Nyet, for every Dan laid off, you get one Alvind, one Chaiwalla and one Dinesh.
But wait, there's more ....
"Early this year, IBM disclosed a workforce rebalancing... and we still expect to exit 2024 at roughly the same level of employment as we entered with."
In other words, for every Dan lost, a Dinesh is hired.
So the plan is cut staff for another acquisition
Rinse and repeat
Eventually the truth will come out. And it will come hard. That’s of course secondary to what really matters, which is more but(secks) and then how it all gets smeared in the media.
Sorry to all those affected by the layoffs. Your lives will brighten soon don’t worry.
