-Poor management
-No work Life balance
-Every time Management goes against IBM policies, they expect you to do overtime on regular basis and mandatory weekend working, if you standup for yourself they will humiliate you and move you to another process and same thing happens there as well.

Company has great policies
Everything is on paper looking good
Dislikes
Company rooted with brahmin politics rooted to the core.
All of the higher management old age retirement people occupying all senior jobs with ilegal way
Making the company progress very slow
Making sure hard working people are cornered and make their life hell and will indirectly target them
All of the people are micromanaged
And they dont have security all of the people data they are stealing
Employee conversation and chat are revealted to higher manager even anonymous reviews...Read More

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.

The work life balance depends on the manager and work that you are assigned to.
Dislikes
There are no promotions until 3 of employment. For that again you need some industry training. After which managers will send your reference for promotion which again on account basis which can take time of a month, quarter or even a year.

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

Dislikes
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
