schestowitz[TR2]Never Forget => IBM's dinobabies settled age discrimination lawsuitFeb 19 09:55
schestowitz[TR2]"Feb 19 09:55
schestowitz[TR2]The documents showed communications between two executives, in which one “applauds the use of the disparaging term ‘dinobabies’” to describe the older IBM employees as part of a “plan to oust them from IBM’s workforce”. According to the court documents, “he describes his plan to ‘accelerate change by inviting the dinobabies (new species) to leave’ and make them an ‘extinct species‘”.Feb 19 09:55
schestowitz[TR2]Both executives, whose names and positions were redacted in the filing, have since left IBM. Other documents referred to the company’s “dated maternal workforce” and called for IBM to “shift headcount mix towards greater percent of early professional hires.”Feb 19 09:55
schestowitz[TR2]They settled this in 2022 and yet we are seeing IBM's desire to reduce staff and pay based on age, s-x, race, skin color get WORSE after a settled lawsuit on this?!
