Pros

IBM is good at the site I work at as they belive in flexibility, most important thing is you meet or beat project deadlines, other than that they are flexible as long as the work is being accomplished.

Cons

Lots of politics at times

Pros

Some of the reasons to work at IBM: very friendly people, lots of work to do, you get to use some of the latest technologies (IBM routinely acquires small companies and phases them in), there are usually corporate events scheduled.

Cons

THE problem with IBM right now is that this recession has frozen all the jobs, and they are even laying people off.

Pros

Very quiet environment, at least at maintainance support. You have very good home working policies. There is no better place to work than your own house/appartment. The managers are also very good-

Cons

Regarding the conditions, the payment is very low here in Argentina as in most companies, but a bit lower than the average. It's not enough to get to the end of the month and save to buy whatever you want, a car , a house, or do your own business. The hiring conditions are very bad, because you pass the IBM interviews and examinations and after they tell you were successfull, they say oh.. we forgot, the hiring is thru a consultancy company we work with.. Most employees at IBM argentina are hired by third party companies,.
