IBM

IBM actively promotes diversity (gender, origin, sexual orientation, disability, veterans...). This is done through resource groups and inclusive policies. For example, 42% of global promotions concern women, and significant rates for minorities.

A structured path with internal training is offered, including in-person sessions, e-learning, and case studies.

Internal mobility is a key aspect: you have the possibility of changing functions or countries, and to evolve according to a clear promotion framework.

Innovation and technological expertise are central. You will work on cutting-edge technologies (artificial intelligence, cloud, etc.) within a large innovative group.

Stability and Reputation: IBM has been in existence for more than 110 years and enjoys great financial stability.

Culture and Global network: An international network allows for exchanges with colleagues from over 170 countries.

A significant part of services and projects is outsourced (notably in India or Eastern Europe), which can reduce local opportunities.

Some employees feel that they are treated more as an interchangeable resource than an individual. They deplore significant pressure without personal recognition.

Moreover, IBM practices periodic workforce reductions ("resource actions"), affecting several employees.

Relocate certain projects to avoid reducing local opportunities.

Make efforts to correct the impression of some employees that they are treated as an interchangeable resource.

Make efforts so that some employees no longer feel pressure and so that they see personal recognition.

Replenish a workforce rather than reducing the workforce.
