IBM

There seems to be changes in the company that allude to positive movement, but it hasn't all played out yet.

There is a shift in growing talent rather than retaining or acquiring talent.

Short-term goals will see immediate relief; however, there is a clear shadow that still casts over future potential. They have let go of many outstanding engineers and are failing to navigate the acquisition space with grace or success.

Executives should seek feedback from Directors to bridge the gap between finances and employees running the ship.

Management seems heavily interested in finances without considering the required technical talents. It seems IBM is more interested in cheap, day-to-day labor talents than high-performing leaders and contributors.
