Pros

- You learn a lot, all the time - Ability to work on game-changing projects for big name clients - Some teams have a great culture, without "drinking the kool-aid" - Flexible work environment, lots of independence in how you work (maybe too much independence) - You work with some genuinely brilliant, creative and friendly people - A lot of say in which projects you work on - Lacks the suit & tie culture of most big consulting firms (or the rest of IBM) - Ability to make career changes unheard of in most big companies

Cons

- Based on your team and project, the overall experience can vary wildly. I've gone from loving my job to despising it and back again... all in a few months - Bureaucracy can really slow down innovation - At several points early in my career I effectively had no manager - We're all subject to IBM's quarterly performance: If profits are down, people get fired with no rhyme or reason - IBM has lots of great ideas but often lacks the follow-through to see them succeed

Pros

The interactive team was the best part of IBM. It was a high-caliber team where everyone worked above and beyond in order to deliver superior results. We had a great culture built by the founders who had been there since the beginning... 22 years.

Cons

Our group had been somewhat immune to typical IBM cuts but in 2018, most of our group was cut in a Resource Action. There was no rhyme or reason for who was cut. They had started the previous year by cutting our founders. They let go the jewels our our organization. There is no justification for that.
