Without Explanation and With Thanksgiving Imminent, More Red Hat and IBM RAs (Layoffs)
Minutes ago (the former in the US, the latter in Canada and claiming to specialise in "AI")
Neither sounds wilful (James Pokoj is still about half a decade away from retirement age)
Holiday coming, time to brush bad news under some rug, right? More "last day" [1, 2] announcements...
As we said this morning, IBM is described as a "Dumpster Fire" because of how it treats it workers, its customers, even its products. That extends to Red Hat.
IBM continues to refuse to say how many people it is laying off just before (or during) holidays, but it begrudgingly admits the total can be 13,500 staff or even higher. █
