Pros

Big company with tons of resources and opportunities to learn and gain professional experience. One can advance quickly if you know the rules of the games.

Cons

Big company with big bureaucracy and unrealistic expectations. As some colleagues put it, we are squeezing blood from our folks. IBM has steered away from its core values and have taken to quarterly focus on the bottomline, at the sacrifice of losing the seasoned people and individuals that gives IBM its prowess.

Pros

So many opportunities to pursue what your interested in.

Cons

Goal setting and job performance rating will silo you into one area. Once there the other opportunities disappear.
