Review of IBM's Summit Program and Sales
Pros: IBM's Summit Program is a world-class sales training program, where you have the opportunity to go through sales school, where you learn the best sales methodology and use them in practice for 6 months before going into the field. Sales school is supplemented by communication workshops (including stand-and-deliver and group presentations), as well as classroom learning on IBM's hardware, software and services offerings. It is a very comprehensive sales and leadership training. The Summit Program prepared me for my current sales role and beyond, into any leadership role I want to pursue in the future.

Not to mention my first year has been a lot of fun, with excellent compensation and work-life balance. It is a culture of giving, networking, support, mentorship, and positivity. I have made some of my best friends working for IBM.
Cons: Heavy travel schedule in sales (this is a pro for me, but may be a con for others)
