Pros

IBM absolutely looks after its own. On large, multi-vendor projects particularly, the pressure can get pretty intense. IBMers who work in the same environment provide a tremendous bit of support for one another when things get tough. There's also some outstanding management who excel at looking out for their people.

Cons

I found working at IBM I was constantly under pressure to change who I was. On one project where I achieved recognized results, I still routinely heard, "you don't belong here". On another, I got mixed messages from management every day - first they'd tell me to change my behaviour to become less creative and more corporate, but then in reviews tell me I should "just be myself". It was a very frustrating experience overall. I would absolutely not recommend IBM as a workplace for anyone who wants to develop creative solutions to problems.
