The synergies and knowledge base are just too easy, and Kyndryl has learned how to be lean and mean as they have had to compete with the Indian body shops. I suspect IBM would make a give to get part of the terms thus reducing financial impacts to both companies.

IBM is still a huge corporation. The vast majority of those "off the shelf" apps are terrible - hard to use, poorly integrated with everything, and full of bad decisions that require employees to memorize a labyrinth of workarounds. You shouldn't have to take multiple online classes to use an employee directory. Almost all of the enterprise software is beyond terrible and results in a loss of productivity. Rather than jus [04:03] schestowitz[TR2] t threaten and yell at employees to be more productive, the CIO used to actually make it more productive. Threatening never works, but tools that are easy to use and well integrated do. [04:03] schestowitz[TR2] Funny you think bringing in green dollars is the only value you can have. CIO used to protect losing green dollars and very well too. But what do Arvind and Thomas do? Sales continue to drop, green dollars under their leadership continue to decline, so all they do is cut, punish and threaten. With such short-term thinking it has helped them get the stock price up for their personal pay days when they cash out. But they are leaving [04:03] schestowitz[TR2] you a broken company with suboptimal, low quality tools and a demoralized employee population that is just hanging out til something better comes along. Uh, great job? [04:03] schestowitz[TR2] No longer my problem. I do not envy what is going to happen to IBM next. It's so sad.
