Overall rating: 1/5
Employment status: former

No longer interested in North American Employees
Pros: Large library of intellectual capital
Still a few good people left
Cons: Morale is horrible in Global Business Services due to fear of layoffs.
Overly dependent on offshore, particularly Indian resources that are not technically competent. 
Raises are rarely given and then only 1% to 3%.
Profit Sharing goes mainly to the execs.
Career advancement is adhoc and depends on who you know and not what you did.
A large part of your yearly review rating depends on you billable hours for the year, but many projects force you to bill only 40 hours/week but to actually work 50 or more hours.
