Pros

Extremely challenging and generally a very good place to work

Cons

Beware of Outscourcing. IBM like many US companies is short changing Americans to vie for cheaper labor overseas. Although the opportunity for sales may be greater outside of the US, the the government needs to tax companies like IBM who are making significant profits with the total cost of un-employement they are generating.
