Pros

A universally recognized software company.

Individual teams have a high level of self-autonomy.

Cons

Ancient, inoperable legacy software (Lotus Notes).

No automation of new employee onboarding, including direct payroll.

No consistency for career development paths nor information between teams.

Disingenuous, overzealous marketing overselling Watson capabilities and technology.

Advice to Management

Have some structure for new employees to be clear what paths forward there are in their careers.
