Pros

Working from home. Ten second commute. Allows for a very flexible schedule and contributes to more fulfilling life style. IBMers are still a very dedicated bunch.

Cons

Working from home. I never met in person any of the people I worked with in my last stint at IBM. Required quite a bit of extra effort to maintain effective communication. I was very surprised at the dedication of IBMers regardless of somewhat tenuous business environments.

Pros

IBM provides a lot of training. It requires 40 hours of training minimum per year.

Cons

A lot of the training is centered on Sales. If you are have a client facing job it may go overseas as mine did. Then you are faced with looking for another job at IBM which I did not find put in for a few and was never even granted an interview. I think most programming jobs were directed overseas.
