What they like about Ibm:

A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.

Climbers who worked at Ibm had these interests:

Books
AI Application Programming (2003) One of the best AI development approaches I've seen; provides soup-to-nuts design, implementation, testing and refinement guides to AI tools.
Compilers: Principles, Techniques & Tools (2007) Arguably the best compiler-design text available. Even where compiler design is not the end objective, this provides a comprehensive overview of syntax parsers and lexical analysis - an invaluable aid to anyone writing sophisticated code
Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship (2008) While other books deal with the abstract issues of Agile development environments, this book provides an in-depth perspective on the details of practically implementing it in a day-to-day work situation.
The Art of Agile Development (2007) For newbies unfamiliar with what Agile Development is, this provides a top-down discussion of the methods, philosophy and illustrative examples appropriate to a number of hypothetical business situations.
UNIX SHELLS by EXAMPLE (2002) Still the bible of system-admins everywhere; gives the best overview and comparison of the nitty-gritty details of all major shell languages in use today.
TCP/IP Illustrated (2007) A two-volume set, this is the cornerstone of any well-equipped library for someone wanting to trouble-shoot network protocols or write code for them.
XML Bible (2001) The fact that this book has not required a major revision in nearly a decade is a testimony to its comprehensive coverage of XML and its use in web-content, applets, and document format.
Cisco Router Handbook (2000) Now in a second edition, this is the "first-read" of anyone taking on the administration of a Cisco-based network.
Cisco Internetwork Troubleshooting Handbook (2005) More than a reference, this explains the philosophy of debugging a sophisticated enterprise network and provides numerous cogent examples with explanations.
C++ Primer Plus (2002) With this book, a rudimentary understanding of OOLs and an up-to-date copy of the Standard Template Library, there is literally nothing that cannot be coded well in tight, efficient C++.
