I don't know what the status is now, but back when I was working for IBM, their Bluemix offering demonstrated a complete lack of commitment to operational excellence with seemingly routine downtime, with an undercurrent of "It's 1700, time to sod off for the day" regardless of the state of their service.
It also didn't help that they seemed intent on paying 35+% less than other competing tech companies.
- anyfactor 5y agoI am big on B2B businesses. I think the higher bureaucracy the better moat! But I think, IBM really tested this philosophy to its breaking point. My sentiment is that IBM Cloud should be broken down to smaller distinct ventures and hiring visionary leaders at each ventures. Like government, enterprise, Small Business+Startup+Open Source etc. They got incredibly lazy.
