Pros
Opportunity to work with highly creative and intelligent team members. The breadth and depth of the corporation offers virtually unlimited opportunities for career growth if you want to relocate or enjoy traveling the world. Globally recognized as a leader in IT consulting services, so a great addition to anyone's resume. Saying "I'm an IBMer" is a great source of pride.
Cons
Anyone joining today's IBM needs to realize there is no such thing as job security regardless of top-notch performance ratings. The company is constantly in flux to cut costs and many who have planned on retiring from IBM have experienced layoffs before reaching that goal. Work / life balance is also an issue for many IBMers.
