Pros

Within a company like IBM Canada an employee can have many careers. I have had 5+ career changes all my choice and I never had to leave this great company to achieve my career aspirations. If you are an educated professional who has great drive and an excellent attitude, looking to be constantly challenged then this is one of the top companies in the world to work... it is all about Attitude and Aptitude here!

Cons

Like any large corporation .... bureaucracy sometimes makes life a little more complicated and frustrating than it needs to be. But there are always many folks to help... you just need to know where to find them.

Pros

Flexible Work Options Decent Benefits Variety of work opportunities

Cons

Somewhat hard to advance Low worker moral -- the theme seems to be "take take take" right now with the bad economy Working above and beyond your job responsibility/hours is expected and not necessarily recognized

Pros

People around you are nice and always willing to help. Mangers are open for advice. Compensation and benefits are good.

Cons

Not able to see the bigger picture. Not a very good consulting firm in general. Not easy to find information you need.
