Overall rating: 1/5
Employment status: current

Big company lot of opportunities to stay at the level you are hired (non executive), expectation to work weekends
Pros: Large company, different projects and clients
Opportunity to travel
Large knowledgebase if you are able to navigate it
Good benefits such as matching 401K and vacations
Cons: Big company lot of opportunities to stay at the level you are hired (non executive).
Expectation to work weekends (60+ hours) because everyone else does too but there is no incentive to work those other than to keep your job.
Management is too much focused on keeping share price and dividend growth
In consulting side though human resources are the key piece but are viewed as widgets as simply "supply and demand"
Too much bureaucracy
In sales -- it is too hard to sell
In delivery -- it is too hard to deliver because during sales very high expectations from IBM are set - "IBMers are super humans" and  "IBM has great tools, methodology, templates" but none exist or are often irrelevant and non usable.
