IBM 沒那麼慘吧

好像很多人吃過IBM的虧,怨念好深...

轉貼一下......

各位同仁，

近期外電報導有關IBM的傳聞，以下為IBM的正式回覆。請運用此與客戶、BP、或於社交網路傳達正確訊息。
如果有任何媒體詢問，請一律轉交公關部 Emma Chung #9616、Li-Fen Li #9841 處理。

通常IBM不對謠言和猜測進行評論；不過，如果這個猜測和謠言過於荒謬的話，我們也會作出回應。近期的傳言就屬於這樣的一個情形，有人試圖〝爆料〞說IBM將如何裁員26%，也就是說裁員總人數超過10萬，這完全是無稽之談。

事實是，IBM在發佈第3季度財報之後就已經宣佈，IBM會花費6億美元進行結構調整。這個調整將涉及數千位員工，而不是1萬，也更不是10萬。此外，IBM目前正在全球範圍內開放超過1萬個職位的招聘，這些職位中超過半數都在IBM的高成長領域，包括雲端運算、大資料分析、資訊安全以及行動技術。IBM的新任雲端運算資深副總裁 Robert LeBlanc，在本周告訴《財富》雜誌，IBM正計畫招募1,000多名雲端運算專家。

IBM的財報明白指出，IBM公司仍然保有良好的獲利水準……去年IBM的營運稅前利潤為210億美元。IBM的〝策略重點〞業務貢獻了公司總收入的27%，並保持持續成長，營收達到250億美元，較去年同期上升16%。我們主要的產品組合擁有高成長率，並在CAMSS（雲端運算、大資料分析、行動、資訊安全和社交商務）領域有著卓越的獲利能力，而這些領域正是客戶現今最為關注的；而這些正是IBM轉型的核心。

There are noises from foreign media about IBM "layoff". Please use below statement firmly when you are inquired. For any media inquiries, please direct them to Emma Chung #9616 and Li-Fen Li #9841.

IBM does not comment on rumors or speculation. However, we'll make an exception when the speculation is stupid. That's the case here, where an industry gadfly is trying to make noise about how IBM is about to lay off 26 percent of its workforce. That's over 100,000 people, which is totally ludicrous.

The fact is that IBM already announced, after 3Q earnings report, that the company would take a $600 million charge for restructuring. That's several thousand people. Not 10,000, or 100,000. Moreover, IBM currently has job postings for more than 10,000 professionals worldwide, with more than half of them in growth areas such as cloud, analytics, security and mobile technologies. IBM's new cloud leader, Senior Vice President Robert LeBlanc, told Fortune this week that IBM has plans to hire 1,000 cloud professionals.

A little perspective on IBM's earnings is in order. The company still makes huge profit... $21 billion in operating pre-tax profit last year. And IBM's "strategic imperatives" represent 27% ( and growing ) of the company's total revenue... $25 billion in revenues, up 16 percent. We have high growth in a substantial portion of the portfolio, and those areas (CAMSS) have better-than-normal margins in areas that matter most to clients today -- that's the heart of the IBM transformation.

台灣IBM的顧問事業好像兩三年前就是大陸另外的廠商在營運了跟美國IBM沒關係，
一個之前在那邊的朋友說的，應該是真的吧。

半導體業務也賣給阿拉伯人了.

IBM還沒賣的大概只剩"IBM"這三個字了吧？

內部闢謠帖?

之前認識兩個幹五、六年的，每年都在擔心被裁的話房貸會付不出來，

旁邊比較淡定的都會安慰說：放心，被裁的話，給的肯定都優於勞基法...

對了，這是大概五年前的事
