Pros

Great name recognition. Flexible hours and work/life balance.

Cons

Constant large layoffs based only on salary/payroll cuts that are forced down upon people managers. These are called "Resource Actions" and are hidden by allowing the laid off employees to stay on the job in their role for up to 90 days while they look for a new job. Then it appears the person has decided to leave for another job, instead of getting laid off.

Pros

Used to be a well respected Professional Services Organization now filled with off shore arrogant un professional low end talent. Clients have lost all respect for organization. Recent Age Discrimination law suites are correct and have caused serious erosion in moral and client perception of IBM GBS

Cons

Out Right Discrimination against White Males over 40 is prevalent and accepted by Management. Clients have lost respect for the GBS organization and will not consider them for consulting engagements
