Is this the same IBM that.....
has moved most of its technical resources to India? Excuse me, wrong question. The question should be: is this the same IBM that has been offshoring far beyond what was realistic given the skill and language levels of the Indian workforce to a point where IBM itself is in danger of disappearing as customers are running away from them?
Sounds like another bailout package is in order here.... After all, if IBM is going to be at the receiving end of such packages it's surely going to benefit their bottom line, as well as the, now dominant, offshored workers. But I'd like to see from IBM the number of those jobs that will be actually *created* by IBM in North America. Bet that the count is near zero, saving from one or two more seats on the executive board plus their support staff (read; secretaries, PR, etc)
At least the auto makers are asking for the money using the excuse of keeping the USA jobs...
