More likely to cut cost and hurt quality than find an innovative future with better gains
Pros: It's international. You get the title on your cv/resume that you worked for IBM.
Cons: Instead of pruning and developing employes, paying more to keep high performers, IBM perfers lower cost, less quality employes in order to save money in the short term ( instead of thinking in the long term this will hurt them).  I have seen and continue to see this across all departments- HR, Sales!, acquisitions, Finance. Management is poorly trained and way too young and it seems like the entire company motions through a leadership checklist instead of living it. No respect for employees, they would slit our throats in a moment if it meant the executives could keep their perks.  Working long hours with no compensation, days off, praise, or whatever value motivates you. Literally you will not get compensated for OT over 12 hours each day although you will often find yourself working 18 hour days.
