dislikes_IBM

not a chance. they will make you the red-headed stepchild. anyone with a shred of business sense would know not to reveal this to candidates. the fact they are flaunting it is a HUGE red flag.

IBM has a toxic culture. They are the vendor lock-in Gods. Every company I've ever worked for has cringed at the mention of IBM, never suggested them as a new solution, and always regretted whatever if anything they locked themselves into.

They are the only company that charges you to sample their API's. They are the absolute worst, an infection that needs to be cured.
