      Pros

      Great company which delivers innovation and solutions to help customers to growth in their business and innovate their ideas which will results in a best quality of living. Cool company but not so cool either.

      Cons

      work/life balance need to be improved and supported by the Senior Management. The right partners to deliver messages to the market need to be redefined in order to be lined up with the market requirements in terms of communication

      Pros

      1. Flexibility. For example, the ability to adapt your work schedule around personal commitments (depending on which area of the business you are in). 2. Job security.

      Cons

      1. Politics and corporate red tape. 2. Ratings are not always based on facts, they are based on opinion; therefore performance reviews can be really biased. You absolutely need to make sure your colleagues enjoy working with you or you are not considered to have performed well.

      Pros

      Education, The company is more then willing to spend money on expanding your experience and learning since being at IBM for just over 3 years they have spent well over 100g to further my education. all these courses were hands on in small classrooms and benefited me greatly in my day to day work role. (the money spent includes flights, hotel, expenses etc). Movement in the company is also a huge benefit to joining IBM, provided you are a hard worker with a willingness to learn and grow there is a lot of opportunity to move within IBM not only organizationally but also to different job roles in different countries, IBM is a world wide company and gives you the opportunities to do so.

      Cons

      As a large company with a large number of share holders the company makes a lot of money saving decisions that don't offer much to the employee, small raises, no bonuses and expense crunches
