is IBM a good place to apply for tech jobs in the current AI climate?

Perhaps I don't have any dignity left to lose, but I wouldn't mind any of this DEIfication vomit. The world is a stage, and I would play my part for a good salary. I doubt most people sincerely believe any of this shit. It's just yet another mask to persevere through our half-crazed reality. What's that? You want me to emb(race)? You got it, boss!

a lot of this stuff is go getters trying to make a name for themselves using whatever tools are fashionable in the moment. the same people making retarded yammer posts that everyone ignores. corps are overwhelmingly nothing factories.

Not deporting every black back to Africa was a mistake. One that's luckily not too late to fix.

What do you do? Whats the management and the pace/workload like? What do you hate the most about the company?
>>
I miss old school IBM and I miss Old Bell Labs.
I miss that old generation of engineer north atlantic boomers.

Today, there’s nothing left of those days. Of course, things weren’t perfect, there were plenty of problems, sins and mistakes. But there was a general spirit of quality and discipline. A genuine commitment to solving problems. These days, it all boils down to cheap labor, programming slurry and finding ways to sell shit nobody wants or needs or how to implement massive control on our systems.

I really appreciate those boomers and try to learn as much as I can from them whenever I get the chance, I know one day they'll all be gone and things are going to SUCK and FUCK even more.

>What do you do?
Customer Manager.
>Whats the management and the pace/workload like?
I've always said that IBM stands for "Incredibly Bad Management" as I frequently disagree with management decisions, often publicly. IBM's history of innovation+fucking it up is pretty well documented. Work/life balance is good, I'm not burgeristani so I've never had pressure to work even a second beyond what's required.
>What do you hate the most about the company?
Too much internal competition and division. It's top-down, pyramidic corporate structure, but given its boomer, large scale multinational status - it's kind of expected.

>I really appreciate those boomers and try to learn as much as I can
I'm in a privileged position that I have access to them. They're great. Sometimes I just chill on calls to listen to them talk.

They have great stories.

Completely agree about learning from the remaining gems of that generation left but we have to make something else that doesn't suck, what that looks like I don't know but probably involves some evolution of silicon valley plus open source culture plus whatever political vibe we need to ride at the moment.
tl;dr evolve to retvrn
