IBM

Good benefits, some fascinating people, somewhat organized processes, encouragement of education, and internal career growth, with programs and certifications.

Very strict compliances, 90s/00s mentality, and many haven't yet realized that the company no longer has all that glamour. Many people get comfortable in their positions, and showing that they are "doing" something innovative and knowing how to sell themselves can determine good career advancements internally.

Depending on the team you end up in, this can determine your technical evolution or regression. Many managers are not leaders, but bosses. They worry about punctuality and how to sell upwards what they are doing for their salaries and promotions.

The technology of internal applications has stopped in time, and any attempt at innovation, however encouraged, is done haphazardly. Few teams have a well-structured CI/CD or a well-implemented testing culture.

IBM's "Agile" is crooked, completely strange, mixing Waterfall with Scrum. I can point out more things, but even so, I think only those who face it will know exactly what it's like.

Na verdade, existe dentro da empresa, pelo menos por parte da alta gerência, um desejo de se reinventar. Porém, são os mesmos que ainda lembram do glamour do passado, querendo trazer isso de alguma forma.

Acredito que a empresa precisa se reinventar a tal ponto de limar tantas laranjas podres que são gerentes de primeira e segunda linha, que estão fazendo o mínimo para garantir uma aposentadoria tranquila.
