Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: current

Good work-life balance; no future vision
Pros: - Work-life balance is honored and enforced; there's a lot of flexibility with sick time, time for personal business, and working flexible hours or working remotely
- Really talented coworkers; the best ones are leaving though.
- The least amount of office drama/politics out of every other place I've worked in
- IBM still has a huge global impact; makes one proud to work for a company that sets up solutions for cities, governments, hospitals, space programs, banks all over the world.
Cons: - Pay and benefits do not match competition for top talent in the industry
- There's an astounding lack of vision at the upper levels of management; feels like the company has been shooting itself in the foot for years now, and nothing has been done to address the issues
- Lack of clear top-down communication about company's direction
- A lot of unnecessary bureaucracy; hard to change things and get things done
- Very low employee morale
