Another one? What is it with IBM, they must really save lots of money in a way no one else has figured out by firing people at 50yo. This is like the 3rd or 4th one i've heard from them.


It’s not very hard. Take a guy making $200k and 30% benefit overhead and replace with two offshore people at $50k total comp.


They don't have to keep giving people raises, why wait until the guy is 50, why not when he is 30 and making $100k? It's not like they have people doing manual labor, it's office jobs. People's faculties don't decline until their late 60's at the earliest. Why don't other multinationals do this and get sued also, what makes IBM special?


25k TC for an engineer? From where?
