Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Senior

Large corporation, mature processes, deep pockets, mature organisational form, well understood in the industry.
Pros: Good work life balance from the perspective that working from home is the norm when not on client sites.  Breadth of client opportunities is extensive given IBM product and service coverage of the market and market penetration.
Cons: Slow to hire, slow to fire, entrenched culture which can impede success.  Downside of virtual work means conference calls at all hours day, night weekend, no culture of downtime.
