Not a great experience
Pros: IBM is known for its good benefits - medical, insurance, etc. If you are lucky, you will be given the opportunity to work in the new focus areas of the company.
Cons: IBM is not a diverse company. There is limited career development and promotional opportunities, especially for women and people of color even if they are more skilled and qualified. Unfortunately, even with an organization of its size, there are too many processes, and many of them are inconsistent. In order to get work done, many layers of approvals are required. It's unclear if employees are truly valued. Many managers have been at IBM too long and are too set in their ways.
