Not the same company that hired me

Pros

Good people. Exciting technology. Work-life balance for most of my time working there.

Cons

In the 80s and 90s, I think IBM still had a foundation based on respect for the individual. That seems to have gone by the wayside over the last ten years. The core of the company, the "IBMer" who signed on and stayed loyally with the company for their entire career, is a thing of the past.

Advice to Management

IBM's greatest asset has always been its workers. Unfortunately, the last ten years have seen IBM lose sight of that fact as they move software development offshore.
