Not how IBM used to be anymore
Pros: The company name and for the most good team members that surround you and are willing to help you out.  Good exposure to technology however, very conservative, will not beat  the latest and greatest however the most known stable solutions.
Cons: You will have to assume business costs that will not be approved for reimbursement i.e. business miles, office supplies and other items due to convenient expense freezes.  Replacement of capable staff by cheaper unqualified offshore workforce cause huge project delays where you have to fill the GAP affecting usually Exempt (free OT workforce), time is still billed to customer for a good profit, usually 15% minimum OT is mandated for Exempt however you will NOT see it in writing.  It coincides with corporate expected growth year after year (Roughly)
Paid training if you are extremely lucky, very rare now or nearly non existent unless 3rd party vendor pays for it.  Overhead expenses mostly no longer allowed i.e. Training Travel
