Poll: How many current/ex IBMers are out there?

It's a big company, and postings about IBM seem to generate discussion. I'm just wondering how many of us currently/used to work at Big Blue.

Good company if you're on the right projects, making sure you're on top of your game, and don't mind a non pay-for-performance pay structure (in my short experience, it's all time-based).

spent last 5 yrs at IBM software. you can do some great things in this place if you can tolerate the old boys (and girls) network, politics and your manager.
