Pros

None! Things were good in late 90s when everything was rosy. Now the environment has made pathetic by management with blatant bias.

Cons

Everything is a downside unless you are a genious .. Else you need to be "ingenious" to make it

Pros

Many of IBM's employee's are remote workers. This comes with both pro and con qualities. The pro's are obvious, less gas used, less time spent in travel, flexible work hours, etc. The only real con is isolation. The division I work in has been extremely generous with flex time, allowing me to work when I want.

Cons

IBM is such a huge organization that sometimes getting through the red tape to accomplish something is horrible. Most everything in my division is driven by customer dollars, leaving little room for R&D type activities.
