Employment status: current

IBM is a good place to work as a co-op.
Pros: I am currently at IBM STG co-op.  IBM has given me the opportunities to explore the possibilities available to me at IBM.  I work with very knowledge people and the work environment is very dynamic and supportive.  I am comfortable, and I learn a lot about subjects that one cannot learn in school--which is the most valuable type of experience needed.  I am given responsibilities that affect the company going forward, and IBM empowers me to do my best by giving me all the tools I need to succeed.
Cons: The only downside is that if IBM does offer me a position it will not be outside my co-op area.  I wish I would apply for other positions else where in the company internally.  The only downside so far.
