IBM nice right place to start, wrong place to finish
Pros: You get some valuable experience in the area you work.  You are a valued commodity for the first year or so. The IBM name is still held in high regard in the business world.  So it is a good stepping stone.
Cons: Career advancement is very limited. There are too many people not moving which stagnates growth. There is no true work and life balance on most IBM accounts.  As a consultant you are asked to travel a lot.  Overtime is not an option, it is a requirement.
