Pros

Friday flex days, planned events by the COE, 401K match, having IBM on your resume, working with 350 other 20 year olds

Cons

Being controlled by 3 different contradicting forces, low low pay, not much of a bonus, constantly being inundated with IBM propaganda, knowing that no matter how hard you work, you will get the same ratting. Unless your good at sucking up, you won't find much progression here. Management stresses having experience in all different roles, and then five seconds later will tell you how important it is to stay in the same job role for 2 years, this tends to go along with their standard practice of contradicting themselves and not having the intelligence to realize it.

Pros

Base Pay, Benefits, Not Working Fridays (lets be real here, nobody does it), ability to travel all over the country

Cons

People just get trapped in this job and dont even get me started on a manager reviewing you who you have never met or worked with before....that makes sense
