I’m finishing my 14th year at Red Hat as we speak. In that time Red Hat had two digit growth every single year. We employ around 13000 people. And in all those years I have read at least one article per week claiming that it isn’t possible to make money with open source. Weird.
- teddyh 8y agoExcept you don’t work for Red Hat anymore. You work for IBM.
- dragonwriter 8y agoIBM has not completed the acquisition (and when it does,Red Hat may still exist as a subsidiary), so, no, people who work for Red Hat that haven't left and gotten hired by IBM still work at Red Hat, not IBM.
- teddyh 8y agoThat’s a technicality, and very much a matter of subjective opinion. How many people who worked for Sun Microsystems thought that they still worked for Sun after Oracle bought Sun? From what I understand, it was few enough to have people quitting in droves.
