Company: IBM
Date: 2014-01-22
Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: former
Experience level: Senior

Beware the Peter principle!
Pros: Well paid. International travel options. Camaraderie with (same level) colleagues. Terrific technical innovators. Good Senior Management (and by that I mean the Board in the US - not the Country/regional management 'yes' men)
Cons: Highly political working environment. Managers more interested in their next move than you (or the job at hand for that matter).  No management training (other than 'how not to get IBM sued') A need, not only to play the game, but to be SEEN to play the game.  You ARE a number (PS mine was 16882 if you're interested)
