Watson Senior Manager
Pros: Diverse set of job opportunities. Company has started to realize the need to use best-of-breed tools and is providing them (slack, GHE, macs, etc.). Encourage a diverse workforce. The Watson unit has a lot of great people focused on building out the business.
Cons: IBM is a ruthless finance-driven company. New acquisitions and strategic initiatives are given some leeway but soon the financial noose will tighten. Even profitable cash cows get staff cut to the bone to try to improve the bottom line.
