Pros

IBM has many departments and considerable opportunity for growth as well as training opportunity.

Cons

CEO takes largest raise of any fortune 500 company before laying off nearly all of your team based in the US. Weekly progress readouts with 5 different executives all with a different agenda.

Pros

A lot of good technology to work with Good pay and benefits Good work / life balance Company has good values

Cons

Decisions are made by high level execs many layers above, with no flexibility to tailor to conditions within individual business units. Jobs are consistently being shifted from US to India or other low cost geographies.
