Pros: Depends on your character but IBM is a whale of a company meaning all the bureaucracy and mind numbing paperwork is a constant thorn until you make at least Associate Partner. GBS, the consulting arm of IBM is a great and full of electric energy as you're solving complex business problems in the worlds biggest firms.
Cons: Some of the projects are long and rather dull. Working in GTS is horrendous, far too many backwards employees who cannot see the bigger picture and are effectively, monkeys in suits. I'd go on but you get the picture.
