Former IBMer here. Had a colleague that got fed up and left IBM for a smaller start up that ended up being purchased ... by IBM. It happened to him three times so he decided that it was his fate to work for them. I left the company in my twenties. All it took was a career change to medicine.

I have a colleague that went through the same thing too. Worked for IBM, jumped ship for another company, company was acquired by IBM, rinse, repeat. Just twice so far though.
