Great for average employees. A no-go for really talented and quicker employees

Pros

No hassles. Not much pressure. Good place to relax. Everything is process-oriented. So one doesn't have to worry about everything, because every small work takes ages to complete. Work and pressure are only for those who want to take them and come forward. In all, IBM is a good place to be before retirement.

Cons

Very slow growth. Compensation will be shared with others. Top talent will not be able to get the top benefits. ISL looks like the only business unit that has some sense of ability and rewards the talented employees. Young talent will not be able to stay put in the slow-paced environment of IBM.

Advice to Management

The top talent should be recognized and suitably rewarded. Everything should not be distributed.
