Average Work, Great Balance

Pros

Good work-life balance, otherwise an average place to work. Incompetent people are promoted when they kiss enough ass. They cannot come up with good product ideas that sell.

Cons

Stagnant place, shrinking development. Shipping jobs to India and China. Hesitant to get into new markets. Only sells to existing IBM customers.

Advice to Management

Too big to matter. They are doing OK with regard to their capacity. Can't ask more from average talent. If you want a change, leave IBM.
