Pros

Good pay, no dress code (in the software lab), flexible hours, fun techie crowd to work with. I had a great time at IBM even though the job itself wasn't really my thing.

Cons

The culture didn't involve much going out after work, the managers were pretty distant from the employees under them there was no overtime for erratic working hours, and for a software lab it was surprising that there were still cubicle walls.

Pros

IBM has many opportunities for software engineers, ranging across a broad set of product teams within IBM's software group. There are many opportunities for growth, and innovation.

Cons

There is really no single valid opinion about working at IBM, since almost half a million employees world wide have different environments, managers, etc. Working with remote colleagues is mostly fine, but can sometimes be a challenge. In the wort cases, I have seen teams of 10 or 12 people, none of whom work in the same location. This can be challenging.
