Cost cutting is the order of the day above all else.
Pros: There are still a lot of really talented people working at Big Blue. If you look hard enough you can find deep expertise and learn a thing or two.
Cons: The bean counters run the shop. Getting anything done involves way more effort than it should because the company is optimized to keep costs down. With that as the focus ability to execute suffers.
