[comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt] A question for IBMers

gupta@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu (Rohit Gupta) (12/01/90)

I posted the attached note to misc.jobs.misc. I received quite a few 
responses - all asking for a 'summary of responses!' My apologies for
posting this to this newsgroup (please, no flames...) but I figured
that IBMers would be reading this newsgroup. Please email responses. Thanks.

Two questions for those of you who work at IBM or have worked there:

1. What type of net access does IBM have. I've heard that IBM is now attached
to the 'net,' but you can only get access if your manager says its ok. Also,
do IBM sites carry Usenet bulletin boards?

2. How difficult is it to obtain assignments abroad? Does IBM tend to staff
their overseas offices completely with employees from the foreign country?
Or can one easily transfer to IBM Europe, IBM Japan, etc.

PLEASE email directly to rohit@uiuc.edu because I don't normally read this
group. Email me if you want a summary of the responses I receive.

thanks,
Rohit
