Employee Rating: 4 out of 5

Established in 1896, IBM is not just one of the biggest tech conglomerate, it is also one of the oldest. The workforce at this IT giant is dwindling at a rapid pace as older baby boomers start to retire. Plus the company’s venture into uncharted territories such as cloud computing, big data, and smart grids are having a positive impact on the hiring activities.

As per the employees, IBM is one of the most stable places to work, but it is also one of the most demanding. Exposure to the latest technology and design perspective, plus the technical challenges are some of the pros, while long working hours and not very well managed higher management are the cons associated with this firm.
