Big company, so your experience may vary
IBM is a big company, so there are a lot of different things going on. If you get on a good team, then it can be quite a good place to work. I worked there for a number of years and was on two good teams that I enjoyed working with.
However, given that it is a large company, there is a lot of top-down bureaucracy, random edicts from management which don't make sense, changes in priorities, etc. So you need to be able to live with that and understand that you may be moved at any point, or your job might be at risk not because you are doing a poor job, but because they could decide that your division is no longer a priority.
