Pros

IBM is a large company, and relatively stable despite the economic downturn, though there have been a lot of layoffs recently. Many very smart people work there.

Cons

Decisions from on high often seem arbitrary. It's easy to get stuck in the wrong position.

Advice to Management

Be more consistent in what you say the values of the company are compared to what you actually do.
