Pros

Great place to work. A lot of learning and development. Doesn't pay that well but gives you a lot of opportunities.

Cons

A lot of times there is a lack pf transparency in the proceedings that makes one bemused and leaves one a little insecure.

Pros

IBM is a giant company, you can learn a lot from business operation to advanced technology. And IBM has various products, it provides total solutions, there are a lot of chances inside IBM.

Cons

Promotion is relative slow, and the compensation is not as good as leading IT companies. IBM is very localized, there is less chance to move around different area.
