Phil,
Thanks for the article. I have a long time friend who was thinking of
interviewing there, I had heard "rumors" and suggested before she
accept the job she should better interview the people she would be
working for. She did and came to agree with my rumors. She did not
take the job, it would have been a disaster as there are zero jobs in
the area.

of Iowa and Missouri, International Business Machines Corp. has
fired half its workers there –sowing ire and disappointment for
locals and officials alike.
