Top-heavy, unqualified and incompetent management.

Business Outlook

Pros

Exposure to several customers and technologies. Work from home if you are not a contractor.

Cons

Absolutely incompetent mid-level "puppet" managers. Usually from the Philippines or India these days, so they might as well be outsourced. Poor communication skills and little or no managerial skills.Their daily tasks revolve around shuffling meaningless spreadsheets to being a hindrance to actual technical work or service that the customer actually needs. Contractors do not get overtime pay anymore. They are being forced to take Time off in lieu even though it will not be mentioned in the contract.

Pros

- Work from home is available and encouraged - micro-management is a minimum - good with work/life balance - respectable place to work - on the job training for technical jobs is helpful and useful for your career

Cons

- salary is low and raises are very low even with great year-end ratings - expectations to always work over 40 hours per week - always cutting jobs, worry all the time about lay-offs - awards are far and few between - employee morale is terrible - education is cut every year - too many approvals are needed for everything (education, expenses, OT)

Business Outlook

Pros

IBM is a good place to get your foot in the door and once you realize they are trying to stick you where the sun doesn't shine then come to terms and leave the joint.

Cons

In the division that I worked in downtown Tulsa, Business Consulting Services, management was extremely unoraganized, training was unheard of, and anyone you needed to contact for help was located in India and didn't know how to speak good English. Everything is micro-managed right down to the time you sit at your desk to the time you go on break. The yearly bonus was a joke and so was the pen & pencil set I received during the Christmas holiday. All of my overtime and extra effort put forth in many projects went unrecognized.
