great place to start a career, with some challenges
Pros: amazing work life balance
people are kind, smart, and generally very collaborative
marketing jobs allow for creativity & autonomy - you define your own role
work when i want, where i want - and the Austin office is one of the best IBM sites
it's exciting to be a part of a huge corporation's transformation
opportunities to learn & travel
Cons: one word: hi- er-arch-ic-al
executives and directors aren't questioned or challenged enough
as a new employee, remote working can become isolating & impersonal
budget is incredibly tight
unclear path to advancement + promotion for new University hires
