Pros

Many resources to take advantage of, as well as different business units. The intern program hosted some very good lectures, and free food was provided as well.

A profitable company that works quietly in the background of our nation's infrastructure. Many IBMers stay at IBM their whole lives.

Cons

The average age is a bit high because many people stay at IBM once they are hired. Knowledge transfer might be a bit slow. The company is so large it is easy to feel lost or not feel like you are contributing very much.

Advice to Management

Keep assigning interns work that you will actually use. Keep up with the interns and guide them better if they are obviously lost.
