Pros

Inclusive and big on diversity. Training is comprehensive and eminence insisted upon. Pay is good + healthy benefits.

Cons

Only innovative in certain areas, i.e. Smart Cities and Quantum Computing with not a lot of true innovation elsewhere. Transition into IBM is poor, leaving employees floundering in their first 1-2 years. There is a huge amount of institionalised red tape, which makes the company very intra perspective and not externally focused, with a lot of old guard managers, who are equally institualionised and driven only by process and politics. Promotion is based largely on revenue generation, which promotes a lot of incapabilities amongst senior managment that don't have the correct level of EQ for strategy or people management. Your IBM experience will be based on who you report to.
