Not the IBM it used to be....
Pros: Great people, extremely experienced and dedicated.  Global opportunities and excellent on line training and education.  My experience with direct management has been wonderful.
Cons: It's not the company it used to be.  Benefits have been slashed to almost nothing.  Employee health care contributions have risen steadily, pension has been eliminated, 401K matching contributions cut from 6% to 2% and only paid at end of year, severance pay has been virtually eliminated.  Constant lay-offs that create a culture of fear and result in the remaining employees taking on the work or it's outsourced to global resources that do not have the experience or skills necessary.  Workers are being cut to give the executive and the board millions in bonuses.
