Pros

The only thing you can get form IBM is a good name on the cv.

Cons

Probably I've been unlucky, but I don't think IBM is a good place for a PhD candidates. I don't even have a decent workstation, the salary is bad and people are not nice at all.

Pros

Lots of interesting products and projects of various flavors, so an employee need never be bored. There is also sufficient cross-mobility across teams.

Cons

Many of the products and technologies are "legacy" and not sexy. Working on those has a downside in that you end up being non-marketable. Also, STG is conservative and risk averse.
