Work satisfaction and good learning development.
There won't be any promotion and hike and if an employee work with 200 %dedication ,their won't be any hike at all.I mean how employee will be motivated for the next year and finally they will leave the company.If you need any HR support or IT support,there is no helpdesk number.You have to depend on chat bot which are worst.They neva give proper reply which you really want from them.

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

Benefits like Medical insurance and good office.
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 provides opportunities for cross learning which is good but due to lot of work pressure you will not be able to take benefit of that
No work life balance, No hikes, No promotion, micro management, No extra activities, no employee benefits. It is a waste company to work

They considered me for H1b and filed my petition in 8 months after my joining
After receiving H1B they never approved my travel and you are forced to stay there for less salary. Don't take joining bonus, get maximum take home salary before joining. In percentage you will receive like 8-10 percent hike but in 3 years you will be less paid and have less knowledge as you work for some client.

They hired a particular skill but the task and work given is not relevant to your Experience. Example:- Hired as Data Analyst (SQL, PowerBi) and given the task of Java and php. Doing Huge Promises that we will give you the task and team as per your Tech/Experience. But no use. ITSR is Jail , and they don't tell at initial Stage while Joining. Playing with Employee and Their Future. for Billing

Certification program. Their process is simple and they provide free vouchers to do various certification.
Toxic Managers and Delivery Managers. They never speak politely even during normal calls. No empowerment given to senior employees do so work on their own. No job security. If you are in bench and no project for a month even when you join immediately they ask you to forcefully resign. Mangers think they only knows everything. Delievery managers talk very rudely and literally harrass everyone. I never seen any motivation or appreciation from them in these two years. But the client I work have shared many appreciation and feedback to managers but they never reveal it. Sometimes I feel these mangers talk as they have drunken alcohol. No onsite to anyone. Just harassment....Read More
