The lawsuit filed in New York City against IBM and its spinoff company Kyndryl involves five former top executives and long-term employees. These executives include Michael Nolan, Karla Bousquet, Jay Zeltzer, Teresa Cook, and Randall Blanchard. The lawsuit alleges systemic age discrimination at IBM, referencing a 2021 case where a former executive accused the company of using age-discriminating documents for recruitment decisions. The legal filing also mentions a leaked video of CEO Arvind Krishna linking manager bonuses to diversity goals, which the plaintiffs argue is discriminatory and potentially overlooks qualified candidates based on race. The lawsuit also highlights a previous age discrimination complaint filed by two human resources managers at IBM, alleging that the company’s HR department uses coded language like “runway” to determine if an employee should be fired based on their expected retirement age.
