Pros

I really can't think of any. Maybe the IBM name and reputation but even that is questionable these days.

Cons

Mandatory voluntary overtime. Basically, you have to work 10% overtime to get a good review. You need an excellent review to be considered for a raise. Promotions are given only after a lengthy process of 'proving your worthy' through a ton of paper work and multiple levels of management approvals.

Pros

Large company has the possibility for advancement. Able to transfer job easily across the country.

Cons

It's easy to get lost in the company since it's large. Priorities often change, making it hard to complete a project so it can reach it's potential.
