IBM workers speak out!
"I am in Shared Services/ITD and we were told last week that our jobs are moving to Argentina by Y/E.
At this time there is no RA/severance pkg offered.
We are supposed to find another job within IBM.
So for those of you that are being told your job will be moving to GDF/Dubuque, still within the U.S. Good Luck!"

Job Cuts are happening in IBM.

To Tech Workers

by corporate management?
Tired of wages declining?
Tired of jobs being offshored
Maybe it's time to organize
contact us at: ibmunionalliance@gmail.com

SOS!
To Sam Palmisano:
Stop Off Shoring IBM USA jobs!
No tax breaks for companies that shift jobs offshore. Full transparency of how many jobs have been offshored, from what IBM US division and location, and where the jobs have been shifted to.

More Spotlights

If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand..
It never did and never will... --Fredrick Douglass--
