Business Outlook

Pros

No pros as such. Global environment, chance to meet many people of different background. Work load is a little less, but then it all depends pond your project and job title. Other than that no good points about this company as such.

Cons

There are many downsides. The company does not take care of the employees. Salary is very less. Even the bonus and financial benefits are very low. Working environment is not very good in sense that its very boring and unproductive. Even company Policies are really bad.

Comfortable, Insightful and a great learning experience - especially how things are managed professionally in IBM

Business Outlook

Pros

Employer friendly policies such as flexible hours, work from home, unlimited sick leaves, and a good workplace environment. Managers show faith and trust in employees. Communication channel is fairly good.

Cons

Promotion and career growth within the company can be too slow. Many free-riders can go unnoticed owing to the large size of the company. In spite of automation in basic HR processes, there is a need for a HR POC. People manager concept puts too much load on managers for them to help their employees well enough.
