Pros

For someone new to IT, IBM can be a place to get exposure to various pre-developed assets that can be leveraged in your career after you leave IBM after 2 or 3 years.

Cons

IBM is in the process of exiting the United States as an employer. Literally, the only people left in the US in IBM will be services employees dedicated to customer accounts that contractually require those people to sit in the US. The concept of having a career in IBM is only a valid concept if you intend to work in one of the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) countries.

Advice to Management

IBM's senior management is in transition out of the industry. They need to accelerate that shift.
