The company has been in a bad shape for a while and it uses COVID-19 as an excuse to lay off tens of thousands of people that it's been wanting to do for decades. IBM failed it's employees and has lost trust indefinitely.

Work-life balance - Good

Dislikes

Shady leadership at the executives level that never takes up responsibility for anything that goes wrong and instead blames it on employees that do the actual work and do all the heavy lifting.

Confused between 2 offers

Hi all, I am having two offers- one from Infy (Kolkata) another from Deloitte (Hyd). Kolkata being my preferred location, while Deloitte offering 15k more monthly. (I know Hyd's expense will cancel this out eventually). Kindly suggest on what to do. This is my first switch. Thanks in advance.

IBM has never encourage the hacking methodologies, lot other technology companies had the hackers to promote the religeous ideology for name sake. Intelligently they are referring as ethical hackers actually those are promoting ... I hope you know ? As the ages passes these keep on repeating until we take some re-enforcement action ?

Some common concerns reported by employees in various organizations may include challenges related to bureaucracy, workload, or communication. It's essential to consider a range of perspectives and individual experiences when evaluating a workplace....Read More
