I don't think you have a good understanding of the Innovator's Dilemma. The research shows very clearly that companies like Lenovo will continue to eat away at IBM's lowest margin business, whatever it is, until IBM is gone h

You're conflating two issues: "Unpaid overtime, unpaid internships" with "unpaid working interviews". OT and internships are post acceptance of a work offer. Interviews should be used by the individual to find the b

great point. If OP has a science / engineering background he should be using that education to form a reasoned argument with data rather than amplifying the echo chamber with more conjecture

One of the nice things about having an MBA is that you learn to construct an argument based on facts, not conjecture. OP would likely be much more persuasive if he had gone to B School. As a result of B School, I am not nearly as opinionate

yes, probably false. This is not news, e.g. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1182327/ came out in 2005. of course, research "proving" that research tends to be false can get us into a lit

actually, they just received $12M in training on how to not make that type of mistake ever again. Sounds like a great hire to me, especially if they will be undervalued in the market by others
