An excellent learning experience
Pros: * Decent pay
* Interesting projects -- IBM has their hands in a lot of cool stuff
* Lots of opportunity to move around (and up)
* Work with the best equipment (IBM makes some of the best servers, storage units, etc.)
* Big company, meaning nice perks like travel, up-to-date equipment, etc.
Cons: * Situated in Markham
* I was doing my internship during the recession of 2008.  I was quite put off by the fact that I saw many senior-level people shown the door around January of 2008, while, at the same time, IBM was continuing to hire interns for cheap labour.  Ultimately, I decided to go to grad school instead of accepting the full-time offer of employment that they made to me.  Nevertheless, I had a great time there and learned a lot.
