Pros

All employees are treated fairly. Great benefits, little pressure so you feel that you are in full control of your career.

Cons

Too many meetings and conference calls. You won't have any big impact to the enterprise. IBM focuses more on sales team and not on technical team.

Pros

Definitely the potential for career growth, the possibilities of moving from role to role (almost every year!), and to move to other city or country. Also the benefits which are excellent

Cons

Any downside typical to a large corporation, such as a lot of time spent on process-oriented tasks as opposed to more strategic aspects of your job
