A Dysfunctional Dinosaur
Pros: The best reason to work at IBM is... I honestly can't come up with the best reason to work at IBM. I'm sure that there are plenty of wonderful reasons to work for IBM, but for me, it has easily been the worst professional experience of my career.
Cons: IBM Marketing consistently demonstrates a complete lack of strategic thinking coupled with constantly changing and competing priorities which lead to every day being a fire drill. Add management's recent decision to co-locate all marketing activities in six cities, and you have a toxic stew of negativity, a lack of accountability and morale that's so low that most people are working on an exit strategy.  For these reasons and many others, I would not recommend working in marketing at IBM.
