Employment status: former

Pure bodyshop - employees are nothing but commodities.
Pros: - work-life balance -- work from home allowed
Cons: -- Absolutely no meritocracy -- totally based on personal relationships
-- Raise and bonus are a joke, compared to industry
-- Career progression is bureaucratic and not merit based 

it is a heavily matrixed organization filled with ego-centric mediocre managers who have no competitiveness in them -- IBM is successful not because of skill but because of size. It needs some decent competition to spin the leaderships head.
