Hi Everyone,
I just received an offer to work as an software sales representative (SDR) for IBMs Z systems. I'm coming as a sales engineer in the cloud security space. Can anyone advise me on whether Z systems are something worth going into? Also what do the growth opportunities look like at IBM? Is there opportunity for lateral movement onto other teams? Not too sure how I feel about working on mainframes (Z systems) but they keep pitching hybrid cloud to me. IBM
Does anybody have any advice when applying to postings with many applicants and getting noticed? The company I am interested in is Figma, and though I reached out to a few technical recruiters after applying through LinkedIn, I am wondering if there might be something more I could do that maybe I’m not thinking about. Also along those lines, if anybody here works for figma I would love the chance to connect

I’m waiting for my written offer too… it’s been about a month.
Just DMed to keep in touch on this.
Oracle just acquired Cerner. They need to sort out the duplication of roles to minimize layoffs. The acquisition process can take up to 3 months.
I’m hearing September earliest from a friend that works there. I ping’ed my HM today just to check in and while I heard right back there was no solid timeline or update. Honestly I think it’s more than just the Cerner acquisition at this point, that’s purely speculation based on what I’m seeing elsewhere and general macroeconomic situation. I remain confident it’ll happen eventually, might just be a while.
I got a verbal offer about a week ago. Also waiting for that to come through
Not yet, spoke with the recruiter last week. Just told me the oracle acquisition has made extra hurdles for hiring but they're still updating me.
We are currently hiring NetSuite Developers and Consultants at my company. If you or anyone are being affected by this, feel free to reach to me.
I’m also awaiting written after receiving verbal offer about a month ago. A friend that works there also citing Q2 (their fiscal starts June) due to Cerner acquisition.
Heard they gonna layoff folks soon
There are several articles if you google Oracle layoffs. Sounds like it’s marketing focused but who knows how reliable the articles are.
