IBM Pune Reviews

Likes

The hire at a high salary thenk keep you on bench. Then they ask you to resign as you are on bench. Don't resign.

Dislikes

They don't have any project or requirement. They just hire you to fill their bench. You will get project interviews but none of them will hire you even if your interview was good. And if the interview was bad they will send that review to your WFM which they can later use to justify ending your employment.

Job security - there are so many projects. If you are on bench then don't worry if you have skills.

Dislikes

There is nothing like annual/yearly appraisal. You can be on same package for 4 years no matter how hard you work. They will only point out for "out of the box like independently developed some AI toll or equivalent to it" thing and at this point you will loose the battle. If you are ok ay to get yearly 1-2% hike on overall package then only you should join...Read More

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

Accountability towards employees learning, aspirations and growth. Open play ground for them who wants to grow. Fix pay structure and bonus over and above CTC.

Dislikes

Highly upline manager orientation.
