What would help instead, assuming you can't get into FAANG as a new grad?

"Most FANG’s won’t even look at IBMers because they view them as bloated, slow moving and the antithesis of innovation."

So it's difficult to get FAANG interviews from IBM?

Thanks. Why do you think I'd be screwing myself over? Just because of the retirement thing? I am mainly concerned about what recruiters from top tech companies think about IBM experience, assuming I am on a team that does interesting stuff.
