We focus on achievement, not hours, and on our people, not projects. Quite simply, you are IBM's key to business success. We are committed to creating a workplace culture and environment in which you can balance your career with your personal priorities. We therefore offer Flexible Working options to our employees because it makes all round good business sense. The ability to work longer hours some days, shorter hours others; the ability to work from home or an IBM location nearer to home, means you can better balance the demands of your job with your interests and home life.

IBM operates a Flexible Reward scheme, You*. The scheme allows you to personalise your reward package by electing benefits which are individual to your lifestyle whilst also enabling you to take advantage of any income tax and National Insurance concessions. Core benefits include medical cover, pension, Group Life Assurance and IBM’s Sickness and Accident plan (when you reach 5 years service).

Some of the additional benefits include insurance offerings for dental and travel, health and wellbeing assessments, the ability to buy and sell holiday and the opportunity to elect into the bicycle scheme

We provide a cash compensation package which includes base pay and additional earnings opportunities as supported by successful business performance through growth driven profit sharing (see section below), sales and bonus plan commissions, rewards and other forms of earnings. Our compensation system is designed to motivate high performing employees, and as such, your pay will be strongly influenced by the results you deliver and our overall business performance. When our business objectives exceed the plan and you perform at the highest level, you'll have an earnings opportunity that aims to place you amongst the best paid in the marketplace.

By linking a portion of your pay to business results, you have a personal stake in IBM's performance. Growth driven profit sharing payout ranges are based on how well the company performs against business objectives and your own performance for the payout year.
