IBM

Quick path to promotions/raises if hard-working. Pretty lax work environment, including work hours. It's easy to talk to higher-ups.

In my particular office, we are usually understaffed because the pay is lower due to the area we are located. This causes them to hire people who aren't necessarily cut out for the job and keep them because they're better than losing the contract. This can be good and bad. If you're hardworking, you will excel, like I said in the pros. But it is bad because you tend to get on projects with people who are there just to pick up a paycheck, and you end up having to take on more work.

Try to raise the base pay for people, so there is an incentive for them to stay there and not move on to a bigger city.
