I feel like I've been reading only bad things about IBM for a long time now. Like, over a decade. If I had to take a shot in the dark, I'd guess it's likely a complete middle-upper MBA management fuckup catastrophe grinding the company into the ground.

No MBAs would work there, it’s untrained management leading to the duck ups.

  You're saying no MBAs work at IBM, and implying that things wouldn't be going wrong an MBA-run organization. This is a joke, right?

    Clearly you have a preconceived stereotype of what an MBA is and I doubt I’d be able to change that with facts.

      An MBA does not mean trained management is present either. You implied that MBAs wouldn't work there. Which is pretty, safe to say, false. (They even have a page advertising to MBAs: https://www.ibm.com/services/careers/mba-graduate https://www.ibm.com/services/careers/mba-graduate )

I don't think that's exactly a stretch. > and I doubt I’d be able to change that with facts. Well, why not try? Your fictions certainly didn't help. You have an MBA, I'm guessing?
