Pros

- 'the matrix' - allegedly you are able to leverage 300k+ employees within the greater organization - free gym! - consistent messaging

Cons

Integration pains - talk to someone from greater IBM (who is not a talking head) and see if they consider you to be part of the greater team, or if they consider you to be a pawn to do their bidding. No cohesion whatsoever. Spending has been frozen for a long time. No extras, no training, no opportunities for personal growth...and no free coffee.

Pros

The pay is more than decent.

Cons

Middle and lower management are petty, sexist and only ever interested in protecting their arses. Nepotism is rampant and the people managers are not skilled at listening to the people the manage.
