Exciting technology, but at what cost?
Pros: The people are some of the best and brightest in technology.  There are opportunities to work on cutting edge technology and to create new markets.  

Ginni Rometty is driving a significant shift in the IBM business and culture. This is an exciting time to be part of that transformation.
Cons: Expense controls continue to be severe to meet the 2015 EPS goal.  This is causing projects in key investment areas to be understaffed.  The performance evaluation system drives a competitive culture that is counter to the teaming culture that is needed for success with aggressive schedules and reduced staff.
