Pros

Really tries to put innovation, inclusiveness, and work-life balance as some of its stated most important values.

Competitive pay.

Clear paths to advancement, many opportunities to move around within the company if you aren't happy where you're at.

Managers care about the employees.

Cons

Seems like some people are still stuck in "old ways" of software development.

Teams are segmented, so some teams still follow bad development practices, though most are open to change. Slowly.

Obviously, IBM is not as successful in the market as it once was. It is trying to focus on its strengths and reinvent itself, but who knows what the future will hold for the company. In the near term, it seems stable.
