Pros

It always looks good to have IBM on your resume since it is such a respected company. There are good, intelligent people to learn from. IBM pushes innovation so most of their employees hold multiple patents.

Cons

No one seems satisfied at IBM Tucson. Many people have left or are looking for work outside the company. The main reasons are compensation and career advancement.

Pros

IBM has impressed me with their commitment to diversity. The company has so many interesting projects in development and combine viewpoints from international employees as well as those within the US. The resources available on site are quite sufficient for research and personal development and the location of the site is ideal for anyone interested in live music, making for a good work/life balance opportunity.

Cons

Apparently there are some divisions that do work longer hours, but I have not experienced this personally. I find that those who work longer weeks are a bit too committed to their work. I have found that the managers are quite flexible when it comes to their employees' schedules.
