My condolences to you for working at IBM ... the grass is greener on the other side
Pros: The only reason to work for IBM is to have it on your resume.  Software group is a respectable place to work, but you have to plan on moving to Reserach Triangle Park in North Carolina if you want to continue working in that group ... That is how I ended up in IBM Global Servicesm see the negative review for what I think of them.
Cons: IBM Global Service forces its employees into mandatory overtime via a practice known as utilization ... if you do excellent work that your peers and colleagues appreciate but are under utilized ... there goes your bonus performance evaluations.  Matrix management does not well, especially if you move into a group where the manager already has his favorites.
