Pros

A good temperature for balancing your life and work. Not high pressure, nor the pay. A really global company, with global opportunities.

Being a business consultant would be a good choice at IBM, which means good pay, travel opportunities, flexible time, and more chances to get in contact with customers.

Cons

Too many people, too many processes. Not too much opportunity for people if you don't have much experience. IBM is transferring to a software company, and for the traditional field such as servers, it seems shrinking year by year.

Advice to Management

Please care more about the long-term career path of young colleagues.
