IBM reviews

too much internal political, but it maybe unavoidable almost anywhere. IBM product is always famous for good quality, however, I could not understand why it is so hard for them to cut the cost, and when I worked for PC division, the one that sold to Lenovo later on, IBM could not effectively resolve issues from supply chain, and internal program error. As a leading IT organization, it looks difficult for IBM to resolve these issues, and it certainly hurt the company's reputation. I know they have tried, but it did not work well. I hope it gets better now.

If you are in a travel required role, the efforts required to be on the road and to comply with stringent travel rules are not really compensated. Employees spend too much personal time to satisfy the job requirements, outside direct client billable work. Work/Life balance is a major problem if you want to make progress in these roles, while trying to maintain a healthy family balance. People in perform roles are probably better off looking at local opportunities unless they have other goals.
