      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Many smart and hard working individual contributors, was a decent place to work in early to mid 2000's.

      Cons

      Weak and short sighted upper management. Lack of ethical and transparent middle and upper management. Too much back stabbing and turf grabbing. Yearly review process is a scam. The merit increases are a woeful joke. Much lower pay compared to the rest of the industry.

      It's still a very good place to work

      Senior software engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Enormous flexibility but IBM is huge and my experience may differ from those in other organizations/geographies.

      Cons

      It's a huge company, this can't be ignored. There is a fair amount of bureaucracy that I expect exists at any company of this size (400,000+ employees)
