Pros

It's a large company with lots of talented people - a great place to learn in almost any field in the industry.

Cons

The company is too bureocratic. I always had the feeling the IBM is just too large, and the management tries to play always on the safe side, never getting into risky investments, which sometimes means bleeding edge projects and great ideas getting cancelled.

Pros

Resume appearance will look good to future employers.

Cons

no compensation for hard work - no pay raise. Don't expect to stay too long since everything is moving overseas like every other company.
