Pros

Stability. The main reason to work for IBM is stability. IBM is less likely to be affected as much as other companies to swings in the job market.

Cons

You do not join IBM Software Group because you are a risk taker. This is a place for the risk adverse and it shows within the company. Many within IBM plateau. They do enough to take a paycheck but nothing more. They are not fired up to make the company grow and succeed. It is a place to hide but still take home a decent paycheck.

IBM...Not what you would think.

Business Outlook

Pros

IBM is a recognized name in the IT industry

Cons

IBM preaches work from home and work life balance, but they don't practice what they preach. Management have a much easier time moving to other positions within IBM, than non-management staff. Very political place to work...IBM has been in a constant state of change over the last four plus years and very little of it has benefited the employee, from no longer offering a pension to revoking work from home privileges to all employees within the our division to not granting pay increases for even some of their top performers for two years running now. Overall a huge surprise to someone who grew up in the Big Blue family.
