Great place to start your career...
Pros: Wide variety of opportunities, if you can think it up, IBM is working on it somewhere. Good brand, carries weight on your resume. Pay is acceptable. Ample opportunites to work from home.
Cons: IBM now stands for "I'm By Myself", management does nto know how to balance work from home with community building. If you haven't worked there 10+ years, you are considered a "rookie" and your ideas are treated as such. The culture protects certain individuals (they seem absolutely terrified of an age discrimination suit) from having to do any real work.
