The phrasing “from start to end” got me thinking—tangential, but—they were an extremely cool company when Millenials were in school and looking to join the work

The phrasing “from start to end” got me thinking—tangential, but—they were an extremely cool company when Millenials were in school and looking to join the workforce. Anybody would have jumped at the opportunity to work for them.
Actually, I can’t even think of a similar company nowadays.
Anyway, it wouldn’t surprise me if they had a really bad hiring pipeline as a result. Why work on the skill of hiring, if people will jump through flaming hoops to work for you.
As MS converts into IBM, and Google converts into MS, I guess they will have to figure that out.

- PaulHoule 2y agoJust wait for IBM to turn into Red Har Linux or maybe Infosysl
- bee_rider 2y agoThat would be nice, if it turned into Red Hat. But IBM was first, right?
- WorldMaker 2y agoIBM owns Red Hat, and companies grow to resemble their acquisitions all the time, though I think more people believe Red Hat is already deep in being borgified to be IBM Linux more than the other way around.
- bee_rider 2y agoI’m aware… it just seems too good to be true, that IBM could be corrected by Red Hat.
