Your buddy should leave right away. Even a job at Mc D. is a better life than working for IBM.
I worked for IBM for 20 years combined. (2x10 years) And as much as IBM once was a truly great company that treated its employees with good pay, great pension packages and an obscene amount of awesome side-perks, they went from all that, to a blood- and lifesucking monster-company that treats their workforce like something you would expect to see in India or China.
In the end i realised that nothing is worth having to work 60-70 hours every week, so i left for a completely different career as tunnel worker at a contruction project in a whole other country instead and i haven't looked back once.
