Great brand name, Terrible for career progression and salary
Pros: The IBM brand name will open doors. 

If you work at IBM in a prestigious division - management consultancy, software engineering, acquisitions, the world will be opened to you.

Internships, Start-up companies, Grad school opportunities. It gives you a large brand name like Goldman Sachs.
Cons: Despite the brand name, there is no other upside. 

IBM pays low, and offers zero career progression. There are two people types of people at the top at IBM - family connected/well connected individuals who's parents may have worked there for decades and understand how the system works.

OR people who give 2-3 decades of their life for no financial upside.
