Pros

Good Work-Life Balance Impressive Bonus Structure and health programs Knowledgeable Co-Workers Good future for the company CEO seems like a good guy

Over hyped the future for US SystemX employees Number of US developers declining rapidly due to layoffs leading to low morale. Majority of developer jobs moving to China Strong shroud of secrecy regarding layoffs or road maps

Thank you for your input. Lenovo is committed to success in the Server business. We bought the IBM X86 server business several months ago. We did not expect an immediate turnaround, however, we do expect great success in the future. We recognize the challenges as we have been successful in the past and intend to do the same again.

We want you to have confidence that we are doing the best for the long term success of the business.
