Not your father's or mother's IBM
Pros: IBM continues to seek out the best and brightest among computer professionals from around the world.  The culture of technical excellence and advancement is still solidly in place.
Cons: With so many highly talented and skilled professionals, the culture at IBM is often cutthroat to the point that genuine talent is overshadowed by personalities and cliques.  Employees are often viewed as disposable and interchangeable, with more emphasis frequently placed on bringing in fresh college hires than retaining more experienced workers.
