IBM sold its retail systems business last year.
I left IBM STG middle of last year. In the span of about 6 months, half of my former department either left IBM or transferred elsewhere in the company. In the latest rounds of layoffs, I was surprised at how many good people (but middle aged) in the larger organization were dumped, and how some bare some areas have gotten (100,000's of code falls on 1 or 2 people).
- forgotAgain 13y agoYou're correct on the Retail Sales Systems. I misread their Q2 earnings report at http://www.ibm.com/investor/?lnk=fif-inve-usen http://www.ibm.com/investor/?lnk=fif-inve-usen . The report, page 3, talks of decline in sales excluding Retail Sales. I didn't take that to mean they sold off RSS.
