His major is international business and he will be graduating Texas A&M in december, I believe, and they told him he has the choice of LA cali, ATL,GA ; Boston,MA; Houston or Dallas Texas; NYC. Makes me wonder if he knows about the job cutbacks..what is it you do for IBM ?
I'm a business analyst. It doesn't surprise me that your buddy got offered a job by IBM, because they're doing a LOT of hiring. You see, in conjunction with my previous post above (which I know you didn't get a chance to read prior to your reply), IBM is replacing all the veteran IBMers that are getting sacked. There's a good chance that your buddy is taking over a job that someone else just got laid off from, and at a fraction of the pay the other person was making. This leads me to the 'evil' part of this whole thing. At the end of the day, the execs are going to spin this by saying 'Look at how many U.S. jobs we created!' Those bastards are going to try to come out of this looking like heroes. It's not by chance that they've opened a huge new delivery center in Dubuque, Iowa. They deliberately chose a region of the country that is a little more lacking in job opportunities, so that they can say 'We brought thousands of new jobs to the heartland of America'.
