Pros

- IBM is a well-known global tech leader; working here can significantly boost your credentials. - Good stepping stone if you plan to move to higher positions in tech or consulting.

Cons

- Annual raises are modest unless you move positions internally. - For Philippine-based service delivery roles (tech support, infrastructure), work may be process-heavy and repetitive - No retirement plan

Pros

Great work life balance. Great pay. Great potential to earn large commissions. Great people and potential to learn.

Cons

Sales led organization where engineering is a 2nd class citizen. Sales people never contact developers, and it's rare that any developers work in the US. Growth comes from acquisitions rather than internal innovation.
