      IBM is a great place to work

      Pros

      Culture of innovation. The 800 pound gorilla. Progressive and multicultural work environment. Morale is good, and compensation is competitive.

      Cons

      IBM == "I'm By Myself". Working remotely all the time can at times be alienating.

      Best job and company I've ever worked for

      Pros

      Stellar reputation and merit pay, raises and bonuses. They truly tie your experience, effort and quality output to your deserved compensation. Simply put-- if you don't produce at a high level, then go elsewhere. There are plenty of ambitious, quality driven professionals that are willing to step in to pick up of baseless complainers that troll this sight.

      Cons

      I'm overcompensated and underworked. Three weeks of vacation and eighty hours of personal development are more than enough.

      Pros

      IBM is a good place to work. There is good deal of respect for employees except when it comes to the resource actions. In many parts of the company you get the opportunity to change jobs every 2-3 years and that helped maintain my interest and keep me challenged. Also, if you get a manager that you don't like very well you can be pretty sure that you or they will move before too long.

      Cons

      The lack of promotions. You need to want to work a lot of hours - this isn't a 9-5 place.
