"Pros: IBM is the first company I worked for that supported a balanced work life (work/home). They provide laptops to all employees. You will work with team across the world (India, China, Germany) which could mean non-standard work schedules. Cons: You are a little fish in a big pond. It's very cut-throat, especially if you have a high salary."

"Waste of time, only good for padding your resume. The pay is awful, the perks are awful, they never do anything on time, they lie and make up excuses about pay, and you can never move up. Once you're in a position, no matter how good you are, they never let you progress in the company."

"I joined IBM as part of an acquisition and the shift from start up, small company to big blue was difficult, there's a lot more bureaucracy and politics at play that slows things down. One thing to be aware of is that you will be competing with your co-workers and not working with them towards a better technology."

"IBM is the worst company in the world. Avoid them at all costs. If they sucker you into a job with them, be aware that they will replace you with Indians the second they are able to. All the profits of IBM go to the top execs. You will receive almost none of it"
