Pros

Healthcare benefits are outstanding and the company picks up most of the premium. Company encourages continuous training.

Cons

Onboarding process is poor. Offboarding process is even worse. Crucial information is hidden and difficult to find. HR hides behind AI assistant who doesn't understand much. Company doesn't provide actual work to apply the training you receive. The company collects charms for the sales bracelet (i.e., X% of IBMers have expertise in Cloud, AI, etc.) to impress clients. Those are numbers of people with training not real hands-on experience.
