Pros

Technology leader in some fields. Flexible work schedule. Good work and life balance. A place to work which will make you a little bit proud.

Cons

Outsourcing is always a continuous challenge for its US employees, who worry about job stability. Lotus Notes is so slow and sucks, and IBM employees have to use it.

Advice to Management

IBM used to be a good place to work for its reputable Big Blue name. Now it's just one of those big employers who outsources, hires, and lays off whenever market demand changes. Don't bet your career on it. Try to manage your career yourself.
