Pros

Our team is small and we are left alone to do what we do best. Good management and a solid team = good place to work.

Cons

Same as all large corporations, sme decisions are made for political reasons. Also since we have zero turn over its hard to advance.

Pros

Growth opportunity for advancing skills, new technology, teams spread across the globe, job flexibility, work environment and friendly co-wrker relationships.

Cons

Comparison based compensation where if you are doing a good job but everyone else is a little better than you, then you don't get any shared profit.

Pros

One of the best thing working for IBM is their flexibiity, and work from home. My co-workers are very professional and friendly. Their pay and opportunity is average at best. The learning experience is great, IBM has many classes and workshop if you wish to take.

Cons

Their pay raise is too little to keep me satisfied. Opportunity is limited mainly to what my team is up to. There is no incentive to stay in IBM after a few years.
