The elefant is running in the morass deeper - how to get out is quite unclear ?
Pros: - international company, many "good" coworkers, room to learn new things
Cons: - 1st line management does not care much about employees; senior execs look just at stock valuation; continuous layoff threats (resource action); hardware business uncertain how to continue ---> strategy ? New acquisitions don't work well outside of USA.
- Initiatives at personel level are ususally turned down
- in European countries, IBM just tries to fulfill minimum legal and tax requirements
