Pros

It is a global company, recognized and respected throughout the United States of America and globally. IBM has been in business for a very long time and has several innovations and research in the pipeline. It is one of the largest service and technology companies. It also has exposure to several different sectors, naming a few would be:

  • Finance
  • Automobile
  • Healthcare
  • Insurance
  • Pharma and Biotech.
Cons

It is very large, and growth has been slow for the United States employees. Cutbacks are constant, and it is a survival game.

It would help to keep jobs onshore, since the customer and business presence is in the United States.

Advice to Management

Reward employees. A 15% pay cut will not motivate employees; in fact, it will only hurt in this inflation.

Also, provide opportunities and utilize existing employees to grow in other fields by providing education and transitioning them to new, innovative technology.
