Loving Big Blue
Pros: As an experienced hire, IBM has been an awesome working environment. The approach to diversity is so much part of IBM's DNA that they see only my skills and the benefits that I bring to the business model. My favorite "pro" is that there's almost no paper anywhere--IBM is already doing what they are advising others to do. And, it's a world-wide 24 hour organization--each day is something new--so nice to be on the raw edge of technology. Another huge "pro" is the focus on being a learning organization--as an employee you can grow in knowledge as much as you can absorb. Skills are grown in-house and can adapt as quickly as the environment changes.
Cons: The project manager roles throughout IBM could  be transitioned to personal contributor leadership roles to create additional enterprise value.
