Changing landscape...not for the better
Pros: Worked with some of the brightest and smartest in IT
Great staff to work kept this place ticking
Cons: Continued workforce reductions and threats for not conforming with management requirements.
Ongoing requests for contractors to take leave to meet projected quarterly forecasts.
Lack recognition of staff for their ongoing contributions.
Poor work/life balance.
Permanent staff and contract staff are treated differently. 
Poor induction.
IBM sales staff tended to under bid to win business and IBM operational staff were blamed for not being able to operate with budgetary restrictions placed on them by sales team.
