IBM has sweatshop culture
Pros: The experience you get. That's about it at this point. Maybe some adrenalin rush due to packed deadlines if you're an adrenalin junkey.
Cons: Overworked, underpaid!! IBM is taking advantage of the 'economic situation' to lay off people and overwork others! Overwork is an understatement.  The people who remain in the ship which is not sinking from the first place it's just another avenue for IBM to make more revenue.  The people left are expected to do the SAME amount of work in the SAME amount of time as it was laid out to be done with twice as many people originally. IBM is saving money and making great fat profits in this 'economic crisis' while its employees are being burned out, exploited and taken advantage of. There have been several heart attacks at IBM since this started. 
IBM was once known as a reputable company.
Now it is a SWEATSHOP!!
Do not come to work here, you will not be respected!!
