An interesting ride ...
Pros: Salary compensation was reasonable and similar to other area positions.  People are generally very helpful when working across the more global organization.  IBM has the technology and resources to pull-off major engagement opportunities and also to bring numerous products into an integrated solution.
Cons: The bureaucracy is absolutely terrible along with the ridiculous expense controls.  If my project team needs a simple tool or immediate need replacement part, it should not take two months of procurement hell.  I should be able to go down to Frys and get the immediate need part.  Talk about lack of impowerment ....
