Not as good as thought
Pros: It is a really stable company, people can last years here if they do the right thing. 
Has some good benefits, as transportation, Asociacion Solidarista, private insurance, WFH..
Cons: I worked in HR, the differences in salaries are huge within employees with the same role, even my case, a partner of mine earns literally twice than me by doing exactly the same thing as me, since salaries are controlled by managers by discretion. Difficult to grow, again the growth opportunity is given by managers, based on their opinion, although you can be a good employee, you can be in the same position for years without getting the chance to grow nor getting salary adjustments. IBM itself does not spend money in motivational activities, no end year party, no birthday gifts, not even a birthday card.
