Pros

Reputation of the place is good, so it looks good on a resume. Honestly can't think of any other good things to say about the place. Coworkers were nice. Manager was rude and hostile and lazy.

Cons

They don't really care about their employees unless you're a doctor. Don't get hurt there or they'll fire you, especially if the injury is a result of their negligence. Managers are not trained, therefore they don't know what they're doing and treat underlings badly. They make many mistakes and cover them all up. They double up the workload when people retire and don't hire any new people. My manager gavel essential work to her favorites and she spent much of her time doing shopping online instead of training people and doing her job.There is a lot of turnover here. Don't work here !!

Pros

Large organization that is recession-proof.

Cons

Leadership does not care about employees, especially tech employees. They are currently selectively laying off the highest paid tech employees just before they reach protected age status. Classic IBM moves from former IBM leadership. Culture has been destroyed. Upward mobility is nearly impossible. They have people on the same teams doing the same work at +- 40K salary via selective job title HR games. They have been practicing constructivve dishcharge on all of IT in an effort to reduce staff. Everyone is applying for their own jobs and they then send some packing and it's been many of the best employees. Other talented people are forced to leave for fear of not having a seat when the music stops. During COVID they said 'Work from anywhere' and hired like mad. Now, they say you are all going hybrid and will have to appear in-office. More efforts at reduction via attrition. The dishonesty is the worst part, all we get in meetings is an HR person with canned responses to protect the edge case legality of what they are doing.
