IBM is great if you are not a US worker
Pros: Work/life balance is great simply because many of us work from home.
Cons: Salary and band promotions are rare regardless of your performance. There is no budget for outside training (classroom). Entire teams are being laid off and replaced with workers from a lower cost region. That is hardly necessary in order to remain competitive, especially for a company with huge profits. It's interesting that the executives making all the decisions still have their raises, bonuses and jobs.
