They're trying, but it's too little too late
Pros: For those afforded the opportunity to work from home, there is great work/life balance.  The company does have some decent benefits, though healthcare benefits have waned dramatically over the past few years.  The biggest benefit of working in a company like IBM, however, is the ability to move into different roles and try new things. The company is vast, and opportunities abound.
Cons: I've worked at IBM for many years.  The culture has shifted dramatically, and not all for the good.  The executives clearly don't care much about the individual employee and are focused, quarter to quarter, on the stockholders only.  They have yet to realize that treating the employees well will result in better results, better profitability.  The shift to "co-location" within the past couple of years has done a lot of damage to morale, even for those not directly impacted.
