Overall rating: 1/5
Employment status: current

Used to be the best company to work for....not any more.
Pros: When I started (30 years ago) it was a great company with respect for the individual and the promise of a great retirement package.  By the time I was ready to retire, those benefits were all gone.  While I didn't get increases the last 5 years, I was still happy with my salary.
Cons: IBM, unfortunately, is run by accountants and therefore there is no long term planning but short term ways to show a profit (through layoffs).  There are unreasonable workloads, deadlines and managers.  No money for education and most new announcements are to inform you of something else being taken away.
