Senior Software Engineer in test (Current Employee) – Damastown, D15 – 27 April 2017
IBM might not give you many benefits, but they are very flexible in accommodating your needs when it goes to your work/life balance.
As all the big companies there might be a bit too much bureaucracy, but things are changing fast.

Warehouse Supervisor/Logistics Order Analyst (Former Employee) – IE – 9 March 2017
At IBM I worked in the logistics end for 7 years. My role was the supervision of a team of approximately 8 staff manageing the receipt and stock control of thousands of products weekly. As part of an internal opportunity I applied for and was successful at being appointed a logistic order analyst. Ths involved system management of all high end products from point of stock release to point of completion and shipment to the customer. The management were excellent and fully supportive.this role was for a period of 4 years.
The hardest part of this role was the volume of orders I managed on a daily basis which was very chellenging.
The most enjoyable aspect of my job was working with many different departments and other IBM sites to ensure our products were delivered on time to our customers.

Account Specific Trainer for Operations (Former Employee) – Ballycoolin – 8 March 2017
As the headline says,
This is pretty much the company I learned the ropes, for better and worse.
My personal experience has been absolutely amazing, there is no questions there, I learned things about the company and myself, did things I would never imagine doing and becoming a whole lot more aware of what I can do in the future.

Quality Advocate (Former Employee) – Dublin, Republic of Ireland – 5 March 2017
I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at IBM. I have gained a lot of experience and skills that I am still able to use today. The team that I was part of were great people to work with and are still good friends of mine. I truly appreciate the growth opportunities I have gotten at IBM.
The downside to the job was that the care for the employees was lacking. Provided services and wages were often below average. There was, in general, a very big turn around of employees because of this.
The reason why I left is because the working conditions deteriorated to such a state that I saw no other option to leave, unfortunately.

Software Engineer (Current Employee) – Dublin – 23 February 2017
It is a nice place to work, car parking facilities, work from home are advantages. Nice healthcare and pension schemes.
Management changes a lot and it seems it does not go on experience or knowledge but on nepotism and personal preference. No training or education programme. No bonuses.
