Employment status: former

For newbies or pre-retired. A point to start or a point to end your career
Pros: At least outside USA, IBM is easy to get hired: good for newbbies, old people that want something relaxed although it forces you to live in a cheap country. You can negotiate HO and in general real technical workload is little. Is a good move to start (just for 1 year) or to go there for a relax pre-retirement taking advantage that most of the staff is newbbie.
Cons: A Burocracy hell, with a proportion of  7 non technical roles per technician. You have to deal with painful tools to work and nobody knows in general. Documentation is lost, outdated or never done.

It seems that each team/region works in each own way with the tools they want and are not the same for all offices across the world. Low salaries, low workload, low expectations. Unless is your final stage of your career, leave before 2 years.
