| schestowitz[TR2] | Let's talk about cost savings myth. It's never a 1:1 replacement of USA worker for Indian engineer. As a previous IBM manager, I have seen several worst cost scenarios. A team of 3 PM's replaced by over 30 PM's and they still couldn't handle the load with any speed or quality. For systems engineers, which should be plentiful in India, the average allowed backfill ratio is around 2:1, but the Indian replacements can only do less tha | Apr 28 15:44 |

The absolute worst case I saw was a couple years ago. 1 senior US person with their server build scripts was replaced with over 100 Indian engineers to build everything manually. That whole offering eventually fell apart, they blamed the US senior engineer who was no longer there for it falling apart without him! I could go on about the cost savings myth, I'm sure others could as well. As a share hol | Apr 28 15:44 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | The U.S. tech giant said the amount includes an investment of over $30B in research and development to advance and continue IBM's American manufacturing of mainframe and quantum computers. | Apr 28 15:45 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | "We have been focused on American jobs and manufacturing since our founding 114 years ago, and with this investment and manufacturing commitment we are ensuring that IBM remains the epicenter of the world's most advanced computing and AI capabilities," said IBM's Chairman, President and CEO Arvind Krishna. | Apr 28 15:45 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | The rest of the $120b is not specified. So not sure what that entails, but I expect it is projects that were already planned. | Apr 28 15:46 |
