Pros

Overall the employee benefits are very good. The retirement savings plans are well funded. The consulting assignments are usually interesting and they have reasonable expectations from a work / life balance standpoint.

Cons

It feels like a really big company a lot of the time. It is somewhat bureaucratic and mechanical the way that some programs are administered.

Pros

If you like technical things the opportunity to make a lifetime of learning is available at IBM.

Cons

"New" approaches, programs, etc. Developed and Imposed by people who don't have to actually use them are sometimes time consuming and wasteful.
