This is a big shift from the past. Another effect is that the idea of "the real world" (ie, the business world) is also gone. I remember stories over the years about crazy kids at universities, followed by comments about how they'd be getting a "wakeup call" when they began working and entered "the real world." Well, this IS the real world now, and many of those crazy campus leftists are being indulged with cushy jobs as a political statement by these corporations.
"Business" has turned hostile toward conservatives in many ways, and it's important to remember this going forward.
Go away, Ginni.
The President Ms Ginni is responsible for enforcing the laws that Congress passes. Surprising a CEO of a major Corp seems to think it is Trump that is the problem.
Why? What's in it for IBM?

So this women clearly sends her children to public school right? She lives in a modest neighborhood that is being increasingly flooded with foreigners? She has graffiti showing up on the stop signs near her house?
If Government is the "King", Business is the "Aristocracy." The rest of us are just peasants.
DACA was unConstitutional from the get-go.
End it.
Why does the IMB CEO think she has more say than us regular schmucks? Can I meet with Senators if I go to DC?
No wonder IBM is no longer #1 in computers.
So we are supposed to put up with tens of thousands of violent gang members and welfare parasites so that IBM can hire 31 illegal aliens?
Hey IBM, we have plenty of American "Dreamers" in the hills and hollows of Appalachia. Hey IBM, why don't you check with them before hiring illegals!
No surprise. The Globalists love cheap illegal labor at the expense
of legal Americans who are quite capable of doing those jobs.
Weve got 31 of these people at IBM, said Christopher Padilla
...
Wow! 31 out of how many? Something tells me they don’t have their priorities straight.
Rometty is another affirmative action :success” story who has driven IBM stock values down 25% in her tenure.
IBM has become a sad shadow of its former self. It is no longer a technology company - it is a “service” company that has exported most of its jobs overseas and brings in thousands of H1B immigrants to displace American workers here.
While she enjoys her membership at Augusta National Country Club, the small towns where IBM used to be located when they ruled the computer world - Endicott, Poughkeepsie, Fishkill, NY, a 1960s farm town San Jose, CA, Rochester, MN, have become depressed enclaves where Americans, AMERICANS, now live on welfare and social security.
And she worries about DACA “kids”, average age 24, who think they have a right to get whatever they want.
Maybe she needs to have a talk with Nancy Pelosi about these nice DACA kids.
When Rometty was named CEO, the outgoing CEO tellingly said:
“Ginni got it because she deserved it... Its got zero to do with progressive social policies.”
Why? Are they legal or illegals. Are you pro America or not? Why did you hire them in the first place?
Ginni’s IBM laid off US workers to move high tech consulting jobs for resiliency and disaster recovery expertise to India. And that was done as recently as fall 2016.
Just saying.
I would like for all the Dreamers and their parents to be deported. Once the wall is completed, let them come in the correct way.
My prediction is that all of them will be issued green cards and fast tracked to citizenship.
The construction of the wall quickly is imperative.

Another company to boycott.
(Not that I have bought an IBM product for many years....
I think the last IBM branded product I bought was a mouse, which lasted maybe two months.)
January will mark 40 years at IBM. Looking forward to retiring.
