Like a rudderless ship adrift on the ocean.
Pros: Great coworkers who love to collaborate and share their wealth of knowledge before they retire... and that's about it.
Cons: Teams run extremely lean due to upper management not understanding how the business truly works. Accountants seem to run the company with consistent downsizing almost yearly. Without thinking, they will layoff too many people and then wonder why financial, support, and production goals can not be met. Too many cooks in the kitchen for sure.

401K match is a joke at 2%, and you only get it at the end of the year thus missing out on compounded interest. Compensation is below average and they know it. You will be told, "when you leave you will have the prestige of having worked at IBM and can negotiate a better salary."

Stay away from GTS division at all costs; you will eventually be forced to up-train your replacement over seas.
