Pros

Market recognition as well as a solid reputation and strong product and offering portfolio.

Cons

Continued off-shoring of services talent and drain (ie layoffs) of experienced talent in favor of younger and cheaper people has taken a toll on our ability to deliver what we say we can.

Pros

Amazing people that I call friends. Flexibility to work from home (for the past three years, that ends in 2017 for most biz units). Great training programs. You can get in the door with the IBM name.

Cons

Morale is at an all time low. The constant, every 6 month change to account coverage and strategy makes success very difficult. The lay offs, also known as "skills re-balancing" or Resource Actions have taken a toll. Often very good people have been let go because they have been in the wrong organization at the wrong time.
