We can learn many things in that company as they have given free access for all learning platform. It totally depends on you how u utilise it.

Dislikes

I don’t have idea about other projects inside the company, but the project which I was working was a low budget project then too those managers were not living that project and it was a worst project , as I am a fresher it was not good to start Carrer like that.

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

Dislikes

Completely depends on the project and people think of you as a machine. If you work hard they give you more work and at the time of appraisal they give you nothing standard 5-10% hike to all.

Work culture and flexibility. Not too much stress.

Dislikes

Even Bcom graduates can become software engineers and project managers in IBM. Bcom from Seshadripuram First Grade College and STEM degree(MS) holder from University of Texas at Arlington, USA are paid the same salary. Very huge pay disparity. No equal pay for equal work. Very racist and biased. Managers make false promises of promotions and very gradual pay hike. No meritrocracy. All degrees are the same. Doesnt matter if you worked until 3AM on projects to earn your STEM degree. BE and US STEM degrees are dirt cheap in India. US Management plays favorites....Read More

1. Working on latest technologies in few projects. 2. On time promotions if you are doing your job and working on client projects. 3. Good Annual hike compared to other service based companies.

Dislikes

1. Entire work on few people in project, others will relax and take same salary or in many cases more than you. 2. Less clients and more internal projects which makes promotion delay, unless there is huge dependency you won't get promotion. 3. Promotion depend on no of employees under manager and his budget not on performance. 4. They will release from project just before appraisal so you won't get neither appraisal nor promotion....Read More

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.

As long as you are in any project, you are treated well

Dislikes

If you are in bench, you are on your own. You have to find your own project. No support from management. Finally, golden handshake will happen, if you can't secure any project.
