You would always feel proud that you are working in one of the top 15 multinational company because of the brand and reputation what it holds globally. If i have to speak generally this is good startup for the freshers to get exposure to the IT industry and work culture. It is a innovation driven company which supports, encourages the people who would like to bring changes that can directly or indirectly impact the company's growth in a large scale. There is an ocean of opportunities that you will find it but you need to get recognized that you are a team player as well as the game changer for the company and to reach to that height you have an option of mentors who would help you in your career growth....Read More
Salary /appraisal is very less, high work pressure may be we have to stretch the login hours some times and also work extra day to cover up the work. IJP is very less and even you have it there are some criteria that you need to meet.
I joined IBM as Tech support and left the company with the same designation after giving 4 years of my hard work. There is no respect to the employees they just want the work to be get it done. I was not at all treated as part of the company.

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.

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.

Work balance is good and learning sources are good
The promotion process lacks clarity, with managers often using persuasive tactics to delay promised timelines, leading to employee demotivation and eventual attrition.

Coaching, many mentors, blue points, learning
Sales & Marketing team: They may hire you for a specific role, but the actual work could end up being entirely different. If you’re part of global team, achieving a work-life balance is possible, but for teams based in India, it’s much more challenging. New hires often face difficulties in being accepted in India culture especially compared to those who have been with the organisation for years, as there’s a noticeable preference for internal candidates. It can take a significant amount of time to truly feel integrated into the organisation....Read More

No hike no appraisal only work pressure. Avg 2% hike u will get if you don't want to ruin your career join some other company or if joining ibm leave this just after 1 yr if you want your financial growth.
No appraisal no salary hike no band promotion, new joini will get salary more than you. No manager support, internal politics is also.

No doubt working with prestigious organisation like IBM is a eye catcher. Company will force you to learn anytime. So you will learn a lot through, learning assignment , free premium udemy, wfh facility.
Only Salary. What you get at the time of joining , will be fixed. No increment in any manner. There is no standard to that. So make sure ,you ask higher. They will deny on this but it is true. It is not Limited to me having 3 yrs in IBM but others who has 7 years too has the same issue.

Honestly I did not like anything in IBM. And remember IBM is a sinking ship now. It has lost all its previous glory.
Very toxic manager and team lead. Managers continiously demotivates you. They give negative feedback. And there is no job security nowadays. I was laid off few months after joining. Please avoid IBM i , IBM Z and IBM power system team. These teams are really bad. Apart from that , office is horrible. You will not get even tea or coffee for free. They have very less office space and they have called so many people to office. IBM ISDL gives good package but do not go with that. You need peaceful sleep, which you will not get here....Read More

IBM being an international company has good policies . And the brand value gives you so much respect in the society.
There are very toxic projects in IBM and once you are into it, your impression about entire company goes bad !! Also the medical insurance is not good, you will end up paying a huge premium for even 1lk coverage for your parents. Also in IBM there is no much HR point of contact, it's all your manager who will control everything, he can ruin and also grow your career in the company. I wish IBM had better HR connets...Read More

IBM is like employee friendly, where IBM will let us to learn lot many things and guide us to look forward in different technologies.
Once we came out of project, it's totally hard to get into new project, usually they do not have any allocation requirements.

Nothing to like. Manager dominating culture
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.

IBM is very good company and will have work life balance ( and its also depands on project). Appraisals are also good (which is depends on your peoples manager). But my suggestion is go with good package yo ibm.
If u are having higher band it will be difficult to get projects. If u are not in project no job security.
