Pros

Some of the reasons to work at IBM:

  • Very friendly people.
  • Lots of work to do.
  • You get to use some of the latest technologies (IBM routinely acquires small companies and phases them in).
  • There are usually corporate events scheduled.
Cons

The problem with IBM right now is that this recession has frozen all the jobs, and they are even laying people off.

Advice to Management

IBM must start hiring again. They are making record profits every year, and yet they continue to lay people off. Why? They can clearly afford to keep them, and the workload has not decreased. Instead, the people who still work there have to work harder to make up for those who were laid off. In some instances, they even had to start working weekends just to keep up.

START HIRING.
