I'm pretty sure you can't work from home at IBM anymore, which is a bummer in today's world.
- abakker 10y agoYou definitely can - I know that many of them still do. However, I'm not sure how many people do this 100% of the time.
- trapperkeeper79 10y agoIBM's policy seems to have changed recently. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/08/ibm_no_more_telecommuting/ https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/02/08/ibm_no_more_telecom...
- otoburb 10y agoFrom your article: "IBM has spent the past couple of years undertaking a massive turnaround effort to transition from its servers and services business model to one focused more on cloud, security, analytics, and mobile. That turnaround has brought with it thousands of job cuts." While it's obvious that IBM is trying to cross the same CASM (cloud, security, analytics and mobile[1]) as their "West Coast competitors", I'm glad that IBM is still investing in basic research as per the OP submission.

- parthdesai 10y agoNope, they recently changed their policy where your manager has to go through tons of paperwork for you to work from home one day a month! One of my really good friend works for IBM and that person told me about it.
- foobarchu 10y agoYour friend is misinformed. The marketing department is the only group that did this. It is not even close to a blanket policy right now.
