Pros

Average to normal work environment and lots of flexibility. Mostly a work at home environment and full of strong employees.

Cons

No career growth 1 to 2% raise year over year ONLY for top 10% employees. Anything outside of that is not eligible for an increase. Only 2 people on a team of 10 can land in that category.

Pros

Smart IBMers around you, flexible work time, fair compensation, good career opportunities, easy to move to new fields .

Cons

Perks practically non-existing, performance evaluation is very much from last century. Much focus on managing the cost-side eg. freezing travel and education budgets.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Given IBM's transformation and what we've heard from many IBMers, we’ve kicked off a brand new approach to performance management for 2016 and beyond. It's called Checkpoint, and it was co-created by IBMers for IBMers to reflect the way all of us work. What's the focus? Continuous feedback; a nimble, real-time approach to setting goals; and year-end evaluation on not just what we accomplished but how we accomplished it. And, perhaps best of all, we're no longer defined by a single rating.

Pros

IBM is huge, the opportunity pool is massive, but takes time, patience and perseverance to crack into.

Cons

Experiences are extremely dependent on your people leader. It can go well or run aground depending on him/her.
