IBM Explained
Pros: - Strong importance on give back to the community
- Inspires you to continue education
- Inspires you to start your own company
- Vacation benefits and sick leave are good if you are a legacy employee or longer than 2 years now
- Good resume builder and brilliant people to mentor (Avoid the bad, negative employees)
Cons: - Lack of concern for the individuals development even though that is the sales pitch
- Internally competition amongst divisions and regions
- Lack of focus on your background
- Like most consulting firms, the metrics used to rate employees does not incentivize efficiency, just billing hours for short-term revenue kudos to push stock price while compromising the delivery it owes to its clients.
- It is making poor globalization choices just like most outsourcing firms because the government incentivizes it to occur.  This is not IBM's fault but rather the government.
