Nothing good any more with IBM. Its just surviving based on past glory and brand Image.

Dislikes

Most managers and team leaders don't have technical skills. Tech folks will end up doing salesman selling IBM products once they grow up in ladder. Flattery is way to grow up. Not a good company anymore to join.
