IBM

In the beginning, it is a great opportunity to grow within the company. Also, in the beginning, there are wonderful benefits for health and pension, 401k, etc.

Many benefits reduced, pensions taken away.

Advancement diminished, layoffs every year, only to hire new, inexperienced employees, or worse, move jobs to other countries and lay off US employees after 20-30 years of experience.

Excessive work hours are mandatory, averaging 60 or more hours per week with no compensation for salaried employees.

Mandatory travel, even when you live within 10 minutes of a site location!

Mandatory travel means being on a plane weekly, home on weekends only.

Management bullied employees, forced early retirement, and created health risks due to excessive stress.

Treat employees with respect, positive reinforcement, realistic hours, and work location.

Allow employees to become the expert in their position before moving them around to just fill projects with bodies and expect immediate performance.

Stop threatening employees about being replaced with an offshore workforce. We are humans with families, not machines!
