I have done internship in IBM -ISL for 6 months of time. In that span of time IBM have conducted multiple trainings on latest technologies . It might help employees to increase their skilset and contribute more to the company . But am not allowed to those training , because am an intern . Overall I have a very good experience with IBM. Moreover, IBM is my dream company.

Dislikes
I just hope they give a very good package. Underpaying the market value. No perks or bonus, very less hike. No benefits, no petrol allowance, No food allowance. Paid leaves are only 22 despite the government has increased. No mandatory leaves. Low budget.
