My career at IBM Research has afforded me many opportunities to advance and grow.
Pros: A very diverse environment to work in, in terms of technical backgrounds. You can learn from senior researchers with decades of experience in the physical sciences, computing systems, computer science, quantum computing.
Cons: Over the last 3 years there have been constant changes to the upper management. Research requires a longer term view, commitment, and institutional memory. Much of this is falling away I am afraid, which will affect the ability of IBM Research to have an impact upon the 5-10 year and beyond horizon of IBM’s business.
