Pros

This company has the potential to accomplish anything. The firm has a unique and varied set of assets and capabilities. There a few very talented people that have stuck it out through very tough times.

Cons

The firm has more bureaucracy than one can even imagine. Although they are trying hard to eliminate the most pernicious aspects of it, it is so deeply ingrained in the culture that it may be impossible. They continue to lay people off and do so almost randomly as they attempt to remake the workforce to match a strategy that is often (not always) akin to re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Pros

International company and well known in business

Cons

Senior leadership needs to be replaced. Ms. Rometty has missed her numbers in most of her quarterly disclosures. She has fired thousands for far less. She did not know the 2015 roadmap was failed, she waited too long to walk away from it. Her accomplishment was leading the DOW Index worst performing stock for 2014. She keeps the girls club at the top.
