IBM will use any excuse to justify firing people over 50 years old. So "DEI purge" is just an excuse, nothing more.

Everyone I know there knows this was coming after Nov 2024. IBM just wants to hide the number and age of the people being fired.

Yeah they kind of got burned by the "dinobabies" comment from a while back.

Their previous excuse was "AI is so awesome, we've automated away the jobs"
