Team Based Quality

Pros

Great WLB, decent pay, possibly interesting work, although the culture has been disjointed since everyone going remote and the quality of the team heavily depends on what you're working on.

Cons

Depending on what team you're on, you may find yourself in a very disorganized department without clearly defined goals or work.

Pros

Getting on projects is your responsibility, but your manager will/should help you land roles in projects as well. If you're not on a project, you're "on the bench", which can be helpful to complete trainings and courses you've been wanting to do.

Cons

Company is very disorganized and very complex. HR is mostly a robot online, pay is low, and transferring to another location seems impossible. Work-life balance may be challenging depending on your project/manager.

Pros

Work Life balance is great, great teams, great managers, good pay. You can feel the reinvention of the company.

Cons

Caught in the middle of old technology getting buried to make way for AI. IBM has a history of reinventing themselves, so it could be a great thing once you look back in time and know you were part of it. However, at the same time, that means a lot of people who spent years with the company are now gone.
