Pros

The only reason I can think of working for IBM is the work/life balance. But the company is keeping layoff people and outsourcing jobs. So the workload is getting heavier every day.

Cons

Low Salary and worst benefits in the industry Very political work environment No career opportunities at all. Old technologies and not used in world outside. The only way to pop up company profit is to layoff and outsource.

Pros

Corporate programs for work flexibility, benefits, good learning place for interns

Cons

Those corporate programs are not available to all, work load/targets are usually unrealistic, salary increases/bonus have not kept up with inflation for the last 10 years and show no signs of doing so going forward, no career progression in several areas after band 8 -- and the continual off shoring of jobs means you have no job security. Ratings are a quota system, not rating of performance. High level of employee burn-out under the current politics
