I do understand the benefits of a multi/hybrid cloud approach but do you really think it would be a game changer and companies like VMware, IBM would win big on this?

- Work remote? I work at IBM. Just joined 2 years ago. Get to work remote from home and travel a few times a year. Any other tech have decent remote benefit and actively recruit no matter where in America you sit?
- Why such obsession with FAANG? Why are people so obsessed with FAANG on blind and in general? I agree these are great companies to work for. But, people just want to join these to get some reputation attached with themselves rather than meaning into their work. There might be some very talented people working at new age startups

- IBM Offer Negotiation Tips I’m expecting to receive an offer from IBM today. The recruiter has told me the offer needs one more approval before she can discuss it with me.

- vote IBM: Young grads — stay away. Join if you are lazy and complacent or a Boomer/Gen X. This is a complete sinking ship. 1. Work life balance may be the only benefit that IBM provides you. If you're fortunate to be assigned on a chill team, work from home 1-2 times and work for less than 30 hrs per week all year round. If you aren't so lucky, you'll be working your asses off to pick up the others' slack. Maternal/pate
