IBM is an OK place to work, lots of Kool-Aid
Pros: The IBM name has a lot of meaning and is great on a resume.  The IBM people you work with are talented and extremely helpful.  The people you work with really do make the project worthwhile. Opportunities to do a lot of different projects.  Learn to manage yourself.
Cons: Distance from company.  It can feel like you are out in left field and management reaches out to you only if there is a timesheet issue.  Your experience is based on the random draw of which project you get - at the bottom you have no real choice.  Insane utilization requirement.  Low pay, no raise, tightwad company.  Too much company Kool-Aid.
