IBM buys growth instead of growing.
Pros: IBM has a lot of neat products, exciting innovators, and fantastic teams. We get to be on the bleeding edge of innovation every day. Things evolve quickly, and the pace is exhiliarting. We have many wonderful benefits options, 401k, discounted stock, pension, lots of days off, and many team outings. It's very family friendly, and management encourages us to get personally involved in our communities.
Cons: Bureacracy, red-tape. Inability to change. Pay. Our commissions system is completely messed up. It's embarassing how wrong our data is. We spend as much time adhering to process as we do to actually selling to customers.
