Pros

Working from home has been the biggest benefit lately.

Cons

Always seem to be worried about the next RA and how to stay off the list. Raises are few and far between, with little or no bonuses. Working all hours.

Advice to Management

Stop focusing on stock price; build a business that provides value to the customer. Put the customer and employees first, and the stock price will follow. I was once told by an ex-IBMer, "Good business is good for everybody." Go back to that belief, and IBM can once again be a great company, both to work for and to do business with.
