That sounds very much like IBM. I was there for @ four years (from 2000 to the end of 2003). When people ask me about it, I tell them "IBM is 300,000 employees. That's like a large city. In a city you have a nice part of town (Watson) where people can more or less follow their dreams and make all kinds of neat/crazy stuff. Then there is the slums (IBM GS) where folks are treated like crap and act like animals." Man, they destroyed the materials.... daaaamn. That's some hatin' -Swift (a guy with enough hubris to quote himself, har har)
