Pros

Work at Home (some days) I do miss the interaction of my fellow IBMers

Cons

Low pay. Low morale. Poor company communications (quantity is not quality) Poor and costly benefits. Difficulty working with Indian, Brazil, Mexican, Chinese and Phillipine support resources. Absolutely no accountability with these resources or their Management. Poor IBM Management in general. My Managers are logged out to phone calls all day.

Pros

Prestigious name recognition for the average person Company protects the "brand name" at all costs. Dividend checks are nice but at what cost (Low wages, layoffs, business unit sell-off, stagnant innovation)

Cons

Internal turmoil, unhappy customers, disgruntled employees, job-scared work environment. Many lay-offs have occurred and the lay-offs will only continue. It is inevitable. Business unit sell-offs and closings . Current company leadership is clueless regarding how to "right the ship".
