Pros

Benefits far out-weigh any cons. IBM UK treat their employees fairly and many employees stay for the length of their career - a lifetime. The number of employees above 25 years service is far more than would be expected at any other corp. Lots of opportunities for career progression and / or jumping sideways to another field or opportunity.

Cons

Politics, size of company, differentiation between brands and geographies. Poor internal support. Anything takes a lonnnngggg time to get done unless you're one of the few lucky ones with the internal knowledge and / or know-how or the "I'll do it myself attitude"

Pros

Large company should be able to weather most downturns in the economy

Cons

Might be too large, some jobs being outsourced. Internship didn't seem very rewarding as far as gaining experience.
