A challenging place to work in a challenging industry
Pros: A very supportive organization that struggles with the challenges of being at the leading-edge of a still 'immature' industry (i.e. outsourcing). IBM works hard to keep up with both the constant change of technology that its clients are using and the technology needed to provide 'superior' outsourcing services. Management works hard to stay ahead of both its customers and its customers. Great opportunities are available for those working to be flexible and ready to turn their hand to anything. Those who don't are left behind and soon become 'dead-weight' in the organization structure.
Cons: Some dead weight in middle-management and the constant challenge of integrating the operations of new clients into the IBM Delivery Model.
