Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: former

Good to start, but that's it ...
Pros: IBM has a good reputation; there is a variety of jobs available within IBM (this was the case in 2007 ...); IBM offers excellent opportunities to get the foot in the business world (I started as a student)
Cons: You are only a number and not being valued as an employee. It is all about "headcounts". Promotions will be granted on higher levels, on middle levels (e.g. IT Specialist) promotions are rare. As mentioned before, IBM is good to start but not good to climb higher on the career ladder.
