      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Early year promotions were great along with the bump of salary. Ability to move within divisions to develop new skills was great . Time off program is great . Salary for education level is great.

      Cons

      Was proud to be an IBM until yearly layoffs occurred. Need balance of workers between US and abroad increase the retirement health benefits so older employees is retire and make room for younger ones Currently employed young workers are frustrated due to long periods between raises and promotion opportunities Movement opportunities are open to some employees and not others. Specialize skill knowledge in one area is not good thing to have. Need to be a good multi-tasker.

      If getting rich is your goal, IBM is not the place to be.

      Pros

      Lots of smart people to work with, top notch in their technical skills. Working on latest technologies makes getting up in the morning to go to work a worthwhile endeavor.

      Cons

      Overall treatment of employees needs to be improved. We are certainly not "interchangeable parts." Lack of pay raises because one has reached "50%" of market penetration is a joke - one wonders who they survey to reach that conclusion.
