IBM… a good place, but it could be way better and hopefully will be
Great technical work, smart people to work with, interesting projects, and ambitious transformation objectives.
High-end compensation is weak, particularly retention vehicles, variable pay (designed to pay out only in case of an exceptional year across the board), and salary progression.
It seems to always be playing catch-up, relying on inertia to keep employees.
Reorder priorities: employees, clients, shareholders. You can't please anybody with unhappy employees. Happy, motivated employees will delight clients, delighted clients will drive the business results that will delight shareholders. The opposite order is an insidious downward spiral.
