IBM is no longer a great place to work
IBM is no longer a great place to work
There is some job flexibility; you can work at home in some jobs.
The benefits are good:
- Several options for health insurance
- Dental/Vision coverage
- Long-term disability
- Matching 401K (but no pension)
The pay is good when compared to other companies.
The hours are very long. People are expected to work overtime almost all of the time. There is no such thing as a 40-hour work week.
There are limited opportunities for advancement. It is difficult to transfer into another position; your manager will not want to let you go. The wrong people are rewarded and promoted.
Most importantly, they outsource jobs overseas constantly. There is no job security whatsoever.
Stop outsourcing jobs overseas!
