IBM

IBM has many diverse avenues to travel in any career direction. If one gets tired of their job, they can look within IBM and move to something different within their field of training or something completely different. IBM strives to encourage teamwork and mentoring, so moving to another job can be a good experience.

There are some areas where IBM has managed to understaff, which can cause undue stress. They try to encourage open communication across all levels of management, but sometimes it seems the communication lands on deaf ears. One has to take the recognition and not stress on the ignored.

Bi-directional communication is key. Listen to those that are working in the trenches. If you don't agree, then let them know why, not just "it has always worked this way." Provide feedback from the management point of view.
