Pros

great technology, like working with customers, pay is still OK. As a knowledge worker, I can ignore some of more negative things. I have a good manager who shields from some of the negativities possibility to make a technical carreer; you can show a certain ammount of leadership without switching into a management role. There are great people at IBM

Cons

many internal processes are a joke; organization wants everyone to become a sales person, does not account different personality types; managers rising up the career path become corrupted; lots of reporting, when management feels helpless. Cost reduction instead of investing in people buerocratic career system

Pros

Flexible comapny delivering what is needed to drive SAP opportunities. Listenting to their customers and handling escalations professionally are in the organisational setup.

Cons

Linkage with IBM processes sometimes do not match to the fast spirit of the comapany, IBM sometimes acts unexpectatly with subsidaries.
