Pros

Get to work on cutting edge technology in IBM systems division - hardware team Great work-life balance Great people and values, and flexibility

Cons

Median pay Really have to outperform to get management to convince for promotion. Finance takes a while as well even if management agrees Lot of legacy tooling, so can get isolated from state of the art a bit Career growth could stagnate if no impactful work found every step of the day Global team collaboration can cause time-zone overlap issues and limit your efficiency in some way, at some point in career if not early on

Pros

Work-life balance Flexible working hours especially for female employees You can find good mentors for innovations in any area.

Cons

Management forces employees to continue in the current team for years, so produces poor technical skills in long-term Many senior technical employees prefer to work alone, so fewer chances for young engineers to learn from them. Seniority and sugar-coating often take precedence over skills when it comes to promotions.
