IBM

There will always be an interesting project to work on with engineers who are genuinely excited to innovate.

Pension is very competitive.

Life insurance is very comprehensive.

There's a decent budget for providing tech for engineers (Latest Macbook Pro, 4k monitors, keyboard, standing desk, etc.).

Moving across departments to work on different areas of the company is fairly easy and accessible.

• Salary is below average for the role.
• Deadlines are often infeasible for the amount of work needed to be done.
• Moving up in the company is fairly difficult. There is a long-lived culture of "do the job for at least a year to prove you can do it, then we'll think about promoting you," which causes a huge backlog of engineers waiting for promotions.
