Pros

Get to work on cutting-edge technology in IBM's Systems Division, hardware team.

Great work-life balance.

Great people and values, and flexibility.

Cons

Median pay.

Really have to outperform to get management to convince for promotion. Finance takes a while as well, even if management agrees.

Lot of legacy tooling, so can get isolated from state-of-the-art a bit.

Career growth could stagnate if no impactful work is found every step of the day.

Global team collaboration can cause time-zone overlap issues and limit your efficiency in some way at some point in your career if not early on.
