IBM is a stable place to work, but innovation only happens in research labs and the groups your hear about on TV.
Pros: Great benefits! Access to leaders all over the globe is an incredible networking opportunity. Very proud to tell people I work at IBM. At the highest levels of the organization the IT industry thought leadership is unparalleled.
Cons: Working for a smaller group or cost center within Big Blue can be especially challenging. My group is like a small/medium business that is expected to perform on par with Fortune 500 companies but lacks the resources to do so both in dollars and people. Cost cutting is paramount.
