I am just a number and people are running scared.

Business Outlook

Pros

Training programs are vast and you are able to travel anywhere you want. Managers direct you're daily comings and goings.

Cons

Work hard and receive no appreciation. Compensation program is changed throughout the year with no notice. I've had to fire people and the process is harsh and heartless in Global Services. There is no real business plan with the upper execs playing musical chairs.

Business Outlook

Pros

Many talented people. Good benefits (though getting more expensive). Usually interesting assignments. Flexible work location when not at the client.

Cons

Too large and easy to get lost in the crowd. Too much bureaucracy. Diminished expense allowances. Managers who are too busy doing their own work to effectively manage. Too quota focused without taking performance into account. Too market reactive with an ever-changing response and knee-jerk mitigation.

Tremendous pressure to meet financial community expectations and IBM's street guidance.

Business Outlook

Pros

Prestige, research, knowledge available to you (almost too much), complete services and software offerings, great value system. Strong attempt to support employees, but execution is often too routine.

Cons

Too much internal competition between certain groups and individual groups can often push their own agenda without regard to what you may be working on,hard to get other associate's attention sometimes for help due to pressures.
