Rumors of layoffs at IBM are everywhere today. According to the rumor mill, not only is the company laying off 1/3 of its employees in North America, it has cut severance pay from six months to just one.
It is bad, really bad. It’s a mass layoff today. It is a sad day for IBM. People are being told not to talk about it. I was told by a manager in getting the news [of my job being eliminated], who was reading off of a script, that one third of the U.S. workforce is being ‘rebalanced,’ which is what they call it.
