You have obviously never been the victim of IBMs consulting arm. I caution anyone against buying anything IBM now. Absolute nightmare to work with.

IBM’s consulting arm was finally so radioactive that they spun it out into a new company (Kyndryl). What I’ve seen is that customers still have a low opinion of the new company and they continue to refer to it as IBM.

Kyndryl is IBM??

Yes and you wouldn't believe how bad they are. We had multiple incidents where colleagues had to explain basic stuff to them and hold their hands. I was in a couple of calls with their engineers and those instantly reduced my impostorship syndrome.

I worked for several years with IBM solutions and the like, I thought they ended up opening near shore centers in Europe to "sell" "local" ressources but it was just detached Indian employees from upper cast billed more than us as they were IBM experts.
