Is IBM offering outrageous salaries and benefits to fill that quota?

If so, where do I send a resume?

i love how everyone is focusing on the TogetherBR portion and not that BR is losing more potential jobs.

You're the one who started his thread topic with "TogetherBR at it again." I was ready to get even more pissed at TBR until I read your link which doesn't mention them.

Did you read your own link before you started your thread?

I know someone who just got offered a really nice job by IBM for their downtown tech center. He starts there in a couple of weeks.

you can still be pissed at them. Their vision is still keeping BR from advancing.

Lol you spent most of the first page of this thread trying to argue that you were right, then when you realized how wrong you were you tried to pretend you did it on purpose for clicks

no i started the thread to point out IBM not expanding this presence here. I tied that to TBR because they have been on the forefront of pushing for the reasons that other companies are pulling out of BR. Are they directly tied? No. But it gives a little humor to the story. People on this site and in general are just to quick to push judgment to say "Gotcha". Man why dont people take a breathe had let alittle humor in to your life.


And Russian..... you really are a pretentious fagot.

The problem is that there’s not enough qualified people to staff the locations, and they aren’t getting a lot of transplants

No they aren't. They are offering Low Pay and high hours for the opportunity to learn and make more at your next job

I have ALOT of friends from BR and the surrounding areas, with degrees that applied and didn’t get hired by IBM.

They either didnt get the job or the job was canceled....


But they hired a bunch of folks from other countries that went to college here...

There's dirt here, but you can't blame TBR for this mess.

Besides IBM the only big winner here is BRAF.

Check into this deal, they have done extremely well with that block.

State subsidy, new digs, high end condos, and all the trimmings.

There's nothing in that article that mentions or references TogetherBR. Sounds like the State officials are trying to work out the details with IBM to salvage future business from them. Isn't that what we want them to do? I'm not sure what your point is with this post.......
