Pros

Good health benefits Can work from home if needed Decent amount of vacation Pay isn't horrible

Cons

IBM is moving all jobs out of the US.

You are always a target for a lay-off. If India or China can do your job, you WILL be laid off.

  • Bonus pool non-existent
  • Raises non-existent

IBM only cares about its stock prices and will cut anyone and anything to get there.

Advice to Management

Doesn't matter; they don't and won't listen.

Upper management is so disconnected from the average worker. They have zero clue about what is going on.
