Pros

Whether you're fresh out of college, or an experienced professional, IBM is the place to be. Here, you can cultivate your expertise, use your knowledge to the fullest extent, or re-invent yourself, without ever having to leave the company.

Cons

Such a large company. You can be lost as number even as an intern. The development and investment in the growth of the new interns did not meet my expectations.

Pros

Big company with tons of resources and opportunities to learn and gain professional experience. One can advance quickly if you know the rules of the games.

Cons

Big company with big bureaucracy and unrealistic expectations. As some colleagues put it, we are squeezing blood from our folks. IBM has steered away from its core values and have taken to quarterly focus on the bottomline, at the sacrifice of losing the seasoned people and individuals that gives IBM its prowess.
