Pros

Surrounded by intelligent people.

Most coworkers are friendly.

Flexible schedule depending on your manager.

Cons

The Old Boy's club exists on the manufacturing side, which is bad for female employees.

IBM does not invest in this sector of the company.

There has been a 5% change in salary since my starting salary eight years ago.

There's a lack of opportunity to succeed.

Long hours are worked with no appreciation.

Advice to Management

Instead of threatening your employees who want to leave because of the bad work environment, try making the work environment better.
