Rolling monthly redundancies are a danger to clients
Pros: Colleagues. IBM attracted many people who are keen to work together and build effective products, real solutions. Great idea sharing and good execution before the rafts of redundancies began about three years ago.
Cons: These days the company is eliminating people who know how products work, who bridge legacy to new solutions. That's why the ABS Census failed - the knowledgeable and experienced people were gone. Four reorganisations in my last year ... company says it's re-adjusting its workforce, but it doesn't seem to be in any particular direction.
Sane senior managers complained to HQ, saying the cuts were deeper than necessary, would hurt the business. Those comments fell on deaf ears. ABS Census failure was predictable and avoidable. 
Neither a stimulating nor fun place to work - the only challenge is keeping your own chair warm.
