The IBM executives don’t seem particularly young to me: https://www.ibm.com/investor/governance/senior-leadership https://www.ibm.com/investor/governance/senior-leadership I suspect there is a good amount of projection happening. They view themselves as old, overpaid, not doing enough work, lacking creativity and ability to engage with the “digital” community. So they assume that is true for everyone under them and took drastic measures to “fix” the problem. It would be interesting to see who exactly sent those emails. Will they publicly stand by those words and defend them?
