      Pros

      Work, life balance is realistic and very advantageous. Flexibility in work schedule and location is left to mobile employees giving you the opportunity to live anywhere in the world. Company is committed to social responsibility and maintains very competitive and liberal employment policies. Great corporate values.

      Cons

      Glass ceiling for associate partners. Still old boys network. Company needs to walk the talk. Lip service given to many real, day-to-day policies that employees are supposed to live by. Company often alters annual policies mid year making it difficult to live up to personal business commitments. Employees often bogged down by internal paperwork and bureaucracy making it difficult to get work done.

      Pros

      Excellent benefits, very fair promotion process, competitive salaries

      Cons

      There are limitations in the salary increase percentages available annually so some top peformers who have been with IBM for a while are not paid as much as people who are newly hired by IBM and who are not performing as well.

      Pros

      - Opportunities to work at some of the best companies in the world. - Consulting teams and practices in different regions of the world can and do work well together responding to a potential client's RFP and performing a client engagement (better than comparable competitors) - Outstanding relationship with SAP. SAP often pushes the client to work with IBM as the systems integrator.

      Cons

      - IBM now stands for "I'm By Myself" & "Impersonal Business Management" and that is how it feels to work here. - Promotions in the more senior ranks are heavily skewed towards resources that implement SAP and that came from PWC or were recruited from the outside post-PWC acquisition. If your area of expertise and/or legacy is otherwise, you have a tough time getting past engagement manager. - This is not a management consulting practice. This is an SAP (first) and Oracle (second) ERP software implementation machine. - Base pay and bonuses are very poor (when compared with competitors).
