IBM, a renowned tech giant, has been embroiled in a series of controversies over the years.
One of the most notable issues pertains to allegations of age discrimination. It was claimed that IBM’s layoffs disproportionately affected older workers.
A former research scientist at IBM alleged that all employees who were let go from the Research Division in 2018 were over the age of 40, with the majority being over 50.
Interestingly, the leader of IBM research at that time was Arvind Krishna, who later assumed the role of CEO in April 2020.
