IBM

IBM has a lot of smart people from whom you can learn and achieve unbeatable solutions. Corporate ethical values are the best, in my opinion. With 400,000 employees, there is always something to do. Due to the company's size and long history, access to C-level is most often easy.

Work-life balance is under pressure, although first-line management tries to help. Getting bright solutions from the design table to production is hard. Most often, people are not willing to invest and spend time on long-term relations with customers.

Shareholder-driven organization.

Promotions and compensation plans are getting worse.

As a global company, IBM is, most of the time, unbeatable in its offerings. However, there are still too many managers and lobbies responsible for too many small pieces, which makes total solution selling difficult due to all kinds of politics.
