ETA fun story from my onboarding group: They wanted us to be beta testers for a new internal training tool they had developed. On the surface, it was just a basic online course map with tests for each course, but god it was so, so much worse than that, and that was because of those damned tests. I don't know who the fuck developed those tests, but I can't even say it was someone who was learning programming on the fly, because that shit had to have been intentionally malicious. Questions that weren't in the material, questions where the "correct" answer was clearly wrong, questions where the correct answer was hidden by the HTML tags. We brought that last one up to the corpo representative who was in charge of guiding us through this nonsense and her reaponse was, I shit you not, "what's an 'HTML tag'?" Comical doesn't even begin to describe the level of IBM's technical dysfunction.
Same with IBM. I pity you of your business decides to go with IBM for vital enterprise services that you have to maintain.
Kill me
Used to work for IBM, can confirm
