The only downside that I can think of is that change has been slow because of the massive size of the organization. But as the company is turning to an Agile methodology, it appears that changes are happening a little more quickly. Also, while IBM encourages employees to learn about new IBM applications, it could do a better job of ensuring that all departments have the means of incorporating appropriate software into their department processes.

Ensure that all departments have the means of incorporating appropriate software into their department processes, perhaps by allowing consultants to do internal implementations in those departments where the skills don't already exist.
