Salary is decent in India Software Labs, equivalent of Tier 2 PBCs. RSUs are also given to employees who perform well. IBM has turned its tech suite around after the RedHat acquisition, even for z/mainframe products. Newer tech stack is being implemented at breakneck pace, enough to overwhelm senior developers as well. Lots of opportunities to learn new stuff, including agentic AI. Job security is better than other PBCs for employees who perform well, but expect PIPs....Read More
You will get stuck in one job band for a very long time. Promotions from 7B to 8 are very hard in particular. Also, IBM India is the only entity among all IBM entities to have A and B subbands till job level 7 (tech lead), effectively prohibiting your growth to a decision-making position for a longer time. Indian management, especially managers who have moved laterally from IBM Consulting, is extremely orthodox, and technically inept. If your product delivery is controlled by an onshore lab (U.S., U.K., Germany, etc), expect the Indian management to have no understanding of what it is that you are doing on a day-to-day basis, and to be at loggerheads with the onshore managers. You, an ordinary employee, will no doubt be caught in the crossfire....Read More

They don't even provide hikes if your pmr ratio is high and by giving silly reasons they keep you on under such situations where they will not give you hike. overall bad experience

Very good thing about IBM is...one will get good resources for learning and they push for external certification also
IBM gives rewards for the work to the employee through one time reward scheme for which higher tax gets deducted and they give less hike. Instead of giving one time if they provide hike then it is good.

Goods for career start. Policy are good for employees asa well as manager.
Promotion period is minimum 2 years. But it depends on your manager. Managers do coast cutting, due to this promotion delay. Hr is not available so we can say anything about any thing to hr. Manager is everything. You have to follow manager instructions whatever he want to do. Culture is bad due to manager depends.

Work life balance, salary and benefits, no pressure. My sincere advise, don’t leave IBM until it is so much necessary you to move out. IBM is far better than any company outside.
No, I don’t think of negatives and dislikes about it.

Great place to work at. Great bosses and supportive colleagues. Just stick to the KRA and work accordingly. You'll get immense support and continuous appreciation from your seniors. After all the work you'll still have healthy work-life balance
