If you get a good project, the clients are great. You get to interact with them on a daily basis and they are not too pushy.

Dislikes

The management 1. They give very minimal hike and during your appraisal cycle they change your PeM. The new PeM don't even know what my rating is and doesn't even discuss about it. In my 3 yrs with IBM I had discussion after I put my papers only as it coincides with Appraisal Cycle. And in 3 years I got 1 hike only. Rest of the time due to PeM change, I couldn't even know the reason for 0 hike. 2. Work Life balance - they say they have rules about having a strict work life balance. They have some unnecessary processes which take away most of your time. 3. Manager interaction - I would say 0. They have some internal politics and they just give least benifits to hardest working person. 4. Rewards and recognition - when you are doing a tough project, they will be like this guy is putting so much effort. We have to give him something and they give 1000-2000 just to motivate. Once the project is done, no appreciation, no mail mentioning the work done. Nothing 5. Retention - they do politics here as well. They told whatever you get we will match. But when I went with the request of my expectations. They didn't even bother and said maximum we can give 40%. Once you put paper don't look back. 6. GDP and PA- they have to distribute the amount within the team equally. TL is paid less than rest of the team. And most of the time it is chillar I have put in way too much work for my Hike percent. And other people who don't have skillset have reaped rewards....Read More

Everything is good if you have good people manager and project manager then. If you resigned IBM they will give you low performance. And in final settlement you will not get your GDP, performance bonus any extra amount. You will get only leave encashment that's it. Thank you
