Summary: Layoffs are not a new thing at IBM (hardly so in the past couple of decades or more), but they're oversensitive about the Red Hat agenda

THIS video regarding layoffs at IBM is based on weeks upon weeks of research. We've been trying to study what's going on inside IBM, not based on media that IBM is paying and manipulating but based on insiders, some of whom are Red Hat employees (or former employees; there were layoffs and resignations at Red Hat). IBM is extremely sensitive about this subject being brought up in the same way Microsoft is paranoid about people pointing out Azure failures and layoffs.

The video isn't easy to make, mostly for sentimental reasons. I spent a lot of my life promoting Red Hat and pushing for stuff like OpenDocument Format along with IBM. In the SCO case, IBM was on our side. ⬆
