What does the leadership team need to get better at?
support women and others, but especially women, and understand the issues
Review from IT Dept
They should try to get to know the strengths of the employees, engage more and retain them so that they don't loose the valuable talent.
Review from IT Dept
IBM does not support women's initiatives. IBM explicity excluded from announcing any statement other than a 1-paragraph, "everyone has their own opinion" after the SCOTUS Dobbs decision was announced. Women were silenced in slack channels for sharing ways to help with Dobbs-related rights.
Review from IT Dept
Having consistent messaging. Communicate company goals and strategies so their people can map their goals to them. Try to experience the reality of what your people are experiencing with the legacy tools you insist they utilize while our customers are decades ahead in their technology (Lotus notes?)
Review from IT Dept
Too much arrogance, not enough attention is paid to employee's want's and requests. Pathetic project allocation teams with blatant disregard for individual likings and career.

Review from IT Dept
I've been waiting years for a raise. there were a full 15 years of no raise. After the changeover to the euro the purchasing power has halved and I have worked hard to have an adjustment. Eventually a manager took pity on me and gave me a minimal raise

I want to understand raise structure better. I need a better understanding of what my goals are and how I can reach them.
Review from IT Dept
I am not paid as per my experience in this industry. I strongly believe I deserve more.

Each employee should be fairly designated and not cheated upon while joining IBM. The compensation should be corrected as per market standards and an employee should not get stuck in the trap of Compa Ratio and PMR

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Everybody is so pulled apart and estranged. A team doesn't feel like a team because the manager has not engaged them well enough.

Some people only take information but are not willingly to share what they have found out, even when working on the same project.

way too siloed; only focus on their own job

Not sure if it's across IBM or only in my project but the environment is very toxic. One bad fish can spoil the whole pond.
Review from IT Dept
No career incentives to do better.
Review from IT Dept
Act on the various surveys and AskMeAnything sessions. Make sure everybody gets a fair chance to work on the interesting tasks, listen to the experienced team members, Evaluate PM's, they are being allowed to make the same mistakes again again, and don't listen to the experienced voice.

Review from IT Dept
IBM used to be famous and known for the flexibility it provides its employees but lately, that is not seen, especially in some projects. Micromanagement, objection on taking leave, forcing to go to office even though when going to office takes 5-6 hours of your day and eats up the productivity.
Review from IT Dept
Engage people, empower them to contribute. Enough with the grills, if you're not pigeonholed then you're out

There are people in the company who don't value people and I'm very sorry for this. Not all of the company is like my team
