      IBM Wakeup

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Job Stability and health insurance. IBM insurance is one of the best in Brazil, but sometimes makes me think that we really need a nice health insurance because we usually work more than expected and have no fun at all. Patience is tested every day with new rules, cuting salaries and forcing a "I love the company" actitude.

      Cons

      The enterprise did not recognize the employees... makes billions and give the worst bonus ever for the employees, always teling that there is not enough money to give a good bonus. And always, after this speach, the enterprise buy a new company for millions of dollars...

      Pros

      Such a huge company so the possibilities you have to develop yourself are big.

      Cons

      Too big. It's hard to be seen. Especially if working at CSO, the salaries are really different from the other ones known at IBM. Also , to get a promotion to a higher band, you must hardwork a lot for 100 or 200 reais more (50 to 100 USD). There are cases where the person was promoted and got only 50 reais (25 USD) as salary plus food card with 150 reais (75 USD) credit. Also it's really bad for all the CSO new employees to be employed with a 44hours week contract (it means they work 40 and don't get any payment for the first 14 overtime hours worked, which is very very bad and unfair. About the retirement plan, IBM used to co-parcipate with 3% + 50% of the employees contribuition, limited to 5%, which means that if the employee pays 10% or his/her salary, IBM used to pay 8% more to a fund. Now, all the new employees get only 1% from IBM. Nothing else. CSO seems to be different from the whole IBM.
