Pros

Great work/life balance.

Decent salary.

Lots of opportunity if you are in the right business.

Cons

If you are in a division where IBM is trying to reduce its footprint, you will get laid off.

IBM is cutting costs to reach its $20 EPS 2015 goal instead of investing in the company. This is causing IBM to eat itself and manipulate its earning numbers. This is not a plan for long-term growth.

Advice to Management

Invest in your employees to increase morale.
