Pros

The name recognition that the company provides as well as a decent salary. Another beenfit is the large numbers of employees who telecommute full time (work at home).

Cons

Having to support support the IBM Global services Org. They sign bad deals, can't deliver what was promised and then have a huge crisis which upper management expects to be magically resolved. IBM also has below average benefits with basically no employee stock purchase program.

Good people to work with. People treat people well. Low pressure sales environment. Work at home is great. Good opportunity to switch jobs, find new careers.

Cons

bureaucratic, commission system was broken, team vs. individual selling environment, intranet was a mess as was all internal IT systems. Poor leadership.
