I only used it during university and it seemed overengineered but it mostly worked, and I vaguely recall IDL to be nice.
I'm guessing interop was actually atrocious?

CORBA had the concept of distributed objects which is a terrible idea in practice.
Synchronisation based on spooky action at a distance of mutable objects.
