IBM

There are a lot of projects and products to work on, and you get exposure to working on enterprise software for global markets.

The company is shortsighted and is basically a giant people mill. A few bubble to the top and are rewarded well; the rest are supposed to be satisfied with the glory of working for IBM.

As a good performer, you are treated in an average to poor way. It is highly political because of this mechanic.

Work-life balance isn't a reality, even though it is discussed all the time.

I don't think they will take advice. Their only concern is EPS, and that has been doing gangbusters. The market has rewarded them for treating their staff like red brick "resources." Perhaps start by referring to people as people and see where that takes you.
