IBM Application Support Specialist Reviews

Likes

Their work life balance is really good but their core work is not up to mark . So I will suggest look for different companies if you want to grow your learnings and career . The options for learning different tech through courses are available but the core work is not up to mark so you are hoping to learn through work is not available

Dislikes

Learning’s through core work is not good

Over all good, it is your luck getting good project and manager. Upskill and certification is mandatory for senior resources.

Dislikes

Everything in Managers's hand. Not addressed employees concerns. You have work under shift timings though you are developer as most of the projects are US projects.

Likes

Benefits like Medical insurance and good office.

Dislikes

There is no work life balance at all. Appraisal is very less and promotion is very tough as it all depends on the manager however good you are.

IBM is like employee friendly, where IBM will let us to learn lot many things and guide us to look forward in different technologies.

Dislikes

Once we came out of project, it's totally hard to get into new project, usually they do not have any allocation requirements.

Likes

Nothing to like. Manager dominating culture

Dislikes

Many of IBMers faces regional/language politics. One never give u a chance to grow unless it find u belong to a perticular region or language. So wouldn't recommend. Additionally very less pay and no perks. U never expect for promotion even.

Likes

IBM is very good company and will have work life balance ( and its also depands on project). Appraisals are also good (which is depends on your peoples manager). But my suggestion is go with good package yo ibm.

Dislikes

If u are having higher band it will be difficult to get projects. If u are not in project no job security.

Likes

work life balance mostly depends on project and client. I worked here for 2 clients. 1 year per client. the project with my first client did not go as expected. the senior management to blame here. hence my (and my team mates') wlb was very bad. there were weeks I even worked for 14 hours per day. work with my second client was verygood. wlb was also very good. I worked during work hours and met all the deadlines etc. comfortably....Read More

Dislikes

hikes were not given as per times. you have to find projects on your own. (there will be forums etc. tho)

Dislikes

Likes

IBM is good at work-life balance after working more than 7 years in IBM one thing I can say one will find very rare work place where people will not say anything once job is done , if any one can do their job none will tell anything.

Dislikes

Promotion and appraisal process , one should get judged by his/her work not the relationship having between manager and reportee, relationship has to be good with all but it should not be the only criteria for getting promotion and appraisal. It was really tough for me to leave IBM as it's my dream company since college time I left IBM because of manager.

Amazing work life balance and great culture. Work is challenging and there is a recent shift to product oriented work rather than traditional services and consulting approach

Dislikes

Not much yet, but I hear appraisals could be better
