A typical day at work is usually extremely busy. Almost not time for lunch. At IBM you never stop learning - no matter what you do. Everyday something new will be learned. Management is stern focussed and driven requiring a mature mindset. My job is not really hard. Just exceptionally challenging. Thinking, problem solving, innovation is some key characteristics of my job. What I get to learn and how I apply it.
Pros: Flexible working times and amount of learning.
Cons: Hours spent working.

Been a excellent learning curve.
I joined when I was still a junior I grew in the company, I leaned management skills and how to interact with clients. What I enjoyed the most was the opportunity to travel the world and learn different cultures around the business . Keeping the client happy when the client is always trying to find fault and not pay for service. I love my team from Management to the engineers it's a bliss to go to the office and interact with them. Daily I run status meetings and dispatch engineers fir the day and meet with stakeholders on the open actions and status lastly do reports. I love my Job
Pros: Good position for Business to recognise your talent
Cons: 24/7 service can be a pain.

Excellent learning curve and a vast ocean of knowledge available
Servicing customers needs are always hectic and therefore one has to be on their feet all the time to ensure customer satisfaction is met ALWAYS. I always enjoy challengers and therefore found my position rather overwhelming with the trend of learning new things everyday. The most rewarding feeling is being commended on work well done by a satisfied customer. In IBM team work is vital. IBM is a family and we work together to grow the company and drive it forward in a positive way. I always enjoy working with different people from around the world and thus making work more rewarding.
Pros: Great opportunity career wise to grow
Cons: Instability
