Pros

The environment is very good, and the job is challenging. There are also many lectures to attend, from which we can learn a lot.

Work-life balance is pretty good; we never work overtime.

Cons

Don't allow the use of any version of open-source code. We can't even look at them. It is a stupid rule!

IBM wastes a huge amount of time implementing something that others have already implemented, such as Java. IBM wrote a JDK by itself! That is really not necessary.
