Senior IT Architect
Pros: Several years back, it was a great company to work for.  Lots of flexibility for learning and opportunities.  There was no limit on what one could achieve.  No limit on which class one could attend.  Continuous learning was promoted to better support our clients.  It was great to be an IBMer and to work with very, very smart people.  Great memories!
Cons: Frequent layoffs since 2007, almost every quarter employees are laid off and employee selection is not based on performance.  It is a numbers game.   The IT resource model is being transformed into an off-shore resource model.
