Pros

Smart co-workers, some interesting projects, new technologies, IBM's leadership in the P-Tech program and mentoring opportunities

Cons

Years of poor results, layoffs and not valuing employees has resulted in a negative culture. The environment is challenging as there is lack of trust and politics as people fight to keep their jobs. There is a lack of respect for experience at IBM and many people are new/limited experience with a huge learning curve. One of the main benefits of working at IBM was the work/life balance due to the flexibility to work from home. That has now been taken away with co-location. Even if you don't have to move, people have long commutes most days which adds to an already long and stressful workday.

Pros

Good Health Care Benefits package options. Generous 401K contributions from the Company. Stock Purchase plan available. Leading edge Technology company that is making a difference in the world, which you can actually see and read about.

Cons

Global workforce, which means you might not ever meet your manager or other members on your team, which means you would need to set up a scheduled call just to talk. Not enough focus on educating the employees for the job they need to perform.
