Pros

The great breadth of the corporation allows for great flexibility in choosing from a wide variety jobs and locations to work. I think that as far as large companies go, I think that IBM tries to be a good corporate citizen. There is so much creativity and innovation occurring in research and development and I feel that permeates in some way thoughout the corporation. It is definitely not your father's IBM.

Cons

The same as for any large corporation... bureaucracy, lack of individual identity. It can be frustrating, as it can be for our clients, to navigate through the maze to connect with the appropriate person.

Pros

salary and challenge. it is a good place to work for a fresh student out of the college but might not be a best place for seasoned developer who might want to achieve something. salary wise this is okay but not the best. work culture wise it is good. good ethics are there but it also depends on the group that you work in. some people have good skills and knowledge sharing but many do not possess that and do not know how to keep the talent within the company. it also depends on the manager that you work under

Cons

salary is sometimes completely arbitary and not proprotionate to talent
