Company hr policy and trying to create a friendly environment
Too much racism and partiality in the company.. managers are not having proper education or work culture mentality..some of under qualified..main reason of having a bad work culture especially and only in operation profile..out of operations things are far better
Work load was average..work culture in mainframe ops is worst..

I have worked with IBM for around 1.5 years, it was beginning of my corporate career, I can proudly say it’s a very good place for career starters there is lot of positives the people , atmosphere & the policies. IBM had very good employee policies when it comes to individuals professionals development & it is right place for peoplelooking for work life balance, with its features like WFH helps you on those odd moments where you really need to balance with your personal & professional tasks....Read More
IBM isn’t a good paymaster, yoy appraisals also don’t help you grow financially. Number of employees working & IBM is huge, so there is lil less focus on individuals ( having said that one must be smart to get noticed & you’ll be focused)

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

There is nothing in this company that is worth liking
The worst decision in my life to choose IBM. The work environment is not good here and the worst things is the senior level people which is not supported anymore, who fire anyone without any solid reason.Ever since I left this company I am in depression.Due to this I could never join any other company again.

I like about IBM is I got such a good friends that's it.
How managers are very rude,and work life balance is zero, and moreover appraisal is not at all there...if we are working in night shift then there is no allowance as well....weird leave rules they have

Nothing I liked. The leaders in Bangalore especially Q2C team follow bad practices by promoting their family members, relatives. The leaders or Managers don't follow ethics. IBM is a great company but leaders or managers in Q2C are very bad
The leaders or managers in Q2C follow very very bad practice

It's good company to have flexible working hours and job security is there.
There is no HR in IBM and employees don't even know who is their HR. It's manager driven company and we don't get much hikes and promotion process is very slow.

Company’s policies
Micro management from IBM senior manager for sbi client at belapur, no IT culture by IBM management. False commitment to client without prior technical feasibility and hence pressure on ground level resources. Mandatory weekend working, if you refuse they will threaten you.

You can easily take sick leaves.
Small term and very outdated projects. In interview even in client interview also they will ask questions like NASA but at ground level you will get work like a fresher. If you are an experienced person your all knowledge will get rusted here. And if by any chance you want to change the project. You need to face very bad politics. If you get frustrated and want to resign, you can not leave before 90 days. The buy out policy is there but your manager will not accept it....Read More

They are too flexible in terms of work, productivity matters here. No strict work from office which is great by the way.
The promotion cycle looks terrible and of course, it is a service-based company, so can't expect a huge salary hikes.

The hybrid policy even before covid. So work-Life balance is there. With wide number of projects, there are ample opportunities to work. Overall culture is good.
Taking Leaves are a struggle here unless you support in other areas. Minimum utilization is there and thus taking leaves is a pain.

Only work culture is good but that will put you in their comfort zone and you will never progress professionally.
People manager and HR are totally waste and they are never interested in your career path. You need to fight with everyone in IBM for your band progression. HR puts gun on People Manager and fires the employee. Your band progression in IBM is your worry and not your manager's worry.
