Thread regarding IBM layoffs

IBMers in TSS: How WILL we support customers after these latest job cuts?

IBM is to lay off more than one in 10 workers across the UK Technology Support Services (TSS)

division, with insiders telling us that some areas will be hit so severely that clients will inevitably feel the

pinch.

.

Notes from the TSS Employee Consultation Committee, seen by us, have finally confirmed the number

of staff that will leave, with 125 set to be ex-IBMers by the summer. This is lower than the 153 first put

at risk.

Broken down, 10 out of 95 heads in sales will go; 54 out of 557 people in service delivery for

hardware/software and ATMs are to be chopped; and 61 of 125 services management and ops folk will

leave.

Hopefully many Big Bleu customers are reading this.

So either he was already let go or he's some random troll, possibly from a competitor. Good stuff.

If a random troll trying to torpedo IBM's reputation, there's really no need to. All a curious person needs to do is look somewhere like Watching IBM or here, which seem to be the only places he posts anyway. Or as of last week, just pay attention to widely-spread articles.

There is no one named Dave Bouvier employed at IBM.

@hyb - Assuming that's you Dave, the reason YOU only get paid for half a job is that you seem to spend most of your time posting fatuous comments. Someone previously mentioned you were being "released" from IBM and if that's true, I doubt anyone will be surprised given you've been publicly slating your employer for months. Such a dumb strategy has no doubt accelerated your downfall and we can only pray that you find something more productive to do in your retirement and stop annoying the majority of people who come to these boards for information that may affect their very livelihoods, not your nerdy, pathetic "humour".

Ginni rometty should have been fired for not having the skills to turn the company around.
