Pros

Starting Compensation: Coming out of college, the salary is much more than most companies offer.

Having the IBM name on your resume.

Flexibility with working from home.

Cons

Tough to move up the ladder. Management is out of touch. Hardly any perks. Over the years, IBM has gradually ripped the employee benefits away one by one, to the point where there are little to no incentives outside of your salary. Extremely tough to get a raise.
