IBM's Tulsa center, located at 521 S. Boston Ave., has been referred to
as the company's largest facility for handling outsourced accounting and
finance work in North America and Latin America.
In 2004, IBM officials anticipated that the company's Tulsa location,
which had 1,200 employees at the time, could nearly double its Tulsa
work force by adding up to 1,000 positions by 2009.
When asked Tuesday if that was still the prediction for the company,
Tieszen said he would have to check. He e-mailed later in the evening to
say he didn't expect to receive an answer so late in the day.
IBM's stock price hit a 52-week high of $126.70 a share Tuesday. That
compares to a 52-week low of $97.04 a share on Jan. 11, according to
Bloomberg data.
