Great education & training, but little recognition, thanks or pay.
Pros: Great education, some of IBM's training courses are world class.
Cons: Little recognition, low pay, no promotion.

IBM's newer management had none of the metoring or people development culture of the old IBM, and introduced a ruthless approach to exploiting their people. The trouble was that they did this with the old IBM system, where excellent education and a lot of mentoring had compensated (a bit) for the low pay and slow promotion in a large organisation.
