They are toast. I’ve never seen better evidence than an admission by a CEO.

Re: How can the company interfere with getting unemployment? That’s a state government function isn’t it?

IIRC the company can state that the person left on their own for no reason, and unemployment will be denied in most, if not all states.

The company can also give ‘carefully worded’ information to possible future employers.

There is no diversity in the metal of a tow chain.

“Diversity is a sad joke.”

Diversity is discord!

They never did make anything. They bought from Japan and reps.

There were certainly issues there. My Sister worked for Big Blue and my Brother for a time but that’s the extent of our family involvement. They left the Village of Endicott a mess.

Pretty much the same story in the governmen.
First, you’re given a ‘goal’ for minority representation in your organization.
Second, you have to justify promotions of whites in writting.
Third, you don’t have to justify promoting people of color.
But, no, that’s not discrimination.

Lenovo is not part of IBM. Wiki:

IBM also acquired an 18.9% share of Lenovo in 2005 as part of Lenovo's purchase of IBM's personal computing division. In the years following the deal, IBM sold their stake in Lenovo, with a final sale in 2011 completing their divestment.

Need to Sue just about every large corporation that exists. They are all doing this crap.

A board member on an all hands call at my last company flat out said if you are white and deserving you won’t get promoted

Back 7 years ago, a group of very smart engineers began a new design based on the old Power chip.
They started with Power 9 and now are working on Power 12.
It was very successful and very powerful.
All that work got sent to India 3 weeks ago.

Even if the good guys don’t formally win, it could be the bad guys being punished by the process. That might dissuade some future leaders from doing the same.
