IBM was decent, but now terrible.
Pros: Early on I worked with intelligent people, although most of them have since left.  There was good support for filing patents.
Cons: The company has too many managers.  They do what they think is good for their short term personal gain.  It is focused on marketing and cutting costs more than technology. It's like a Dilbert cartoon.  Pay is lower than it should be.  I didn't realize just how bad it was until I started working for a different company.  I can accomplish so much more now without management restrictions and interference, wasted time in meetings, and wasted effort on activities that don't add value.
