Compensation is a hoax. Make sure you get your desired rate going in. Everything will be done to avoid paying you bonus. Although I was given numerous recommendations and recognitions from top leaders. I see now it was all a ploy just to set an image of solid work ethics. Nothing resulted in compensation for working 80 hours per week or being left alone on projects to complete demands from major clients.
Employee
quick witted. smart answers with no substance. Looking and waiting on someone else - to provide results.
Employee
Unstable environment. Low concern for its employees. Aggressive and sluggishly top heavy. They let a lot of good people go. Certain type "A" Personality traits are redundant throughout the firm.
Employee
Even if your contract says bonus, if the company doesn't perform you do not get a bonus. Leadership will steal your work, the credit, and the numbers to retire their own quotas
Employee
Manufacturing culture where people are just bill of materials items, interchangeable

IBM GBS has a fairly decent reputation in the Consulting market, but is too often seen as being too large and complex, therefore is seen as less nimble than some of the smaller firms. Clients tend to find it hard to determine "who's throat to choke" when business consulting issues arise.

With IBM being one of the largest consultancy firms in the world, it can be too hard for employees to shine, and promotions can be hard to come by. It is also very difficult to transfer to a different section of the consulting business once you have joined.

Employee - Senior Associate/Consultant
Excellent market reputation. Best of the best. Prestigious. As the saying goes, "Nobody ever got fired for hiring IBM." Now, there probably are all kinds of stories and maybe even hidden meanings beneath that saying. Yet, I think at face value, it is a testament to the brand's reputation. People feel confident in IBM's ability to deliver and do a great job.
