IBM

• Tons of resources such as hardware, software, and intellectual property.
• Flexibility in work location and hours.
• Reasonable expectation of stability and longevity.
• Possibility to move around and try different things.

• Pay increases are dismal.
• Recognition for a job well-done is unlikely.
• It is hard to move around between divisions.
• Hours can be ridiculous.
• Leadership is lacking, though this depends a lot on your team/division.

Get more organized.

Put a better management and technical leadership structure in place.

Truly recognize everyone who does a good job, not just the higher-ups.

Spend a little more money on making it feel like an elite place to work.

Start giving out stock options again to the worker bees; it gives a feeling of ownership and appreciation.
