IBM Associate Project Manager reviews

Bad communication, managers with absolutely no people skills, sales/profit orientation with no regard to what the client really needs, too many lines of report internally and no support from management, level of competence leaves much to be desired, IBM is living on the laurels of years gone by, too much " cover your ass" policies hindering productivity and overwhelms managers

Breaking into management is difficult, even if you have talent and competency to become a manager sometimes you get overlooked because the hiring managers already have someone in mind and are only going through the motions of a job posting/interviews before officially giving the job to their person. Like in the other post, there are times where being one of 400K can seem overwhelming and you feel small and overlooked by being so large. The key is to getting an excellent manager to support you and to be passionate about employee development otherwise you will get lost in the shuffle.
