Fresh from college? Avoid IBM!
Pros: Not much to write home about except that there are some very talented people at IBM. Some groups still allow WFH. I have worked here for 20+ years so there must have been something good but hard to quantify.
Cons: Good for top executives and 2% employees. Others are just going through the motions. No clear direction. Even the much touted Watson is bleeding money. Mobile strategy is non existent other than the Apple partnership. Cloud is struggling - most people don't have a clue on how to compete with AWS or Azure. Management identifies some people as worthy and keeps paying them all the perks. Lately, I have seen a lot of average techies become STSMs.
