Technical Sales Specialist
Pros: IBM has some great people working for them and tremendous internal resources on which to rely to help close business.  Sales at IBM are team based.  This is a necessity as most deals are quite large (enterprise) and involve many moving parts.  It's not possible to be a technical expert on everything so it's important that you are able to team with additional resources to deliver the right value message to your opportunities.

IBM also provides reasonable compensation and benefits for the role.
Cons: IBM is a chaotic workplace.  It is constantly changing organizational structure and vision.  This has lead to deteriorating morale as front line employees find themselves with significant uncertainty as their roles shift to meet the needs of the new organization.
