Job Security Leaves policy Assignment of project in 2 or 3 months if you are on bench.

Dislikes

-> My project team lead always asks to work overtime, and if I deny, then he would start lecturing me about how he worked when he was a fresher and asked me to work whenever the project was needed. I worked under two team leads, and both of them are like the same. Always thinks about completing the tasks. If I ask any leaves (planned leaves / sick leaves), they won't approve it. Very rarely, they would approve my leaves like if clients were having public holiday at they location. Your experience will depend on what project you are assigned to and how understanding your team/project lead would be. -> No salary hike. Even though you did well and received good feedback from your project manager, you would get a salary hike like 2 - 5%. Only getting promotions will help you to get a good salary hike. -> No cab facilities for men. -> No proper appreciation for the work you do. -> Work culture is very bad....Read More

Everything is good if manager is happy

Dislikes

For promotion and hike.. Work from office is important criteria Doesn’t matter how hard you work.. Now days IBM adopted 70 per client centric company from employee centric company. Shift can change during UAT and Prd Hypercare time or region wise

Nothing to like about being at IBM, they hire you doing false promises and teach you policies and BCG what they won't even follow when comes to reward employee or keeping up with the employee engagement.

Dislikes

False promises. Poor management and just name sake of integrity. They expect integrity from employees but fails to keep it themself! They make anyone manager and the manager is the only person you can go to for anything. Manager are so underskilled, and not even eligible to be managers and they have control about everything in your career at IBM! It is purely a manager driven company.. Manager has soft corners for some and they will get full advantage of everything!...Read More

The access to learning platforms.

Dislikes

Work life balance is terrible would be an understatement. Asked to work on every weekends even though it could have been managed on weekdays itself with proper management, sometimes even on holidays and all this without any compensation. Everyone keeps quiet about this, if you speak up, you will be highlighted. This is so worse that any other benefit pales in comparison, even a high salary.

Likes

If you have a good salary, and you got the project with respect to your skill set then balle balle. Dont expect salary increase every year because IBM dont work like other companies like minimum salary hike. Hard to find any projects releated to Cloud domain or big data or PySpark. Work life balance is good and job security is there.

Dislikes

As i said , dont expect salary hike like other companies has minimum increase ratio is 5%. Project is less in cloud, pyspark , big data technologies .

Technology heavy Company. Freedom to be technically Savvy. Wise talent pool and super skilled Engineers and leaders. Technology driven. In the consulting space, top notch technology wise.

Dislikes

I feel it is struggling to be both technology Savvy and Cost effective to deliver to Client. It competes with Indian Pure players while decisions are taken from America and leadership there as per their culture and corporate style. It won't work. They have non billable roles sitting at non offshore centers or high cost centers. So, one way I feel bad such a great company unable to deliver because of ineffective cost dynamics with in the company....Read More

Amazing work life balance, flexible working hours, wfh. Management is responsive most of the times if based out of India.

Dislikes

Global leads are not that much reachable due to timezone differences. Work can be a lot of redundant and mostly on support side. Better to change within teams.

One of the best MNC so far. Earlier I was working in TCS for almost 3years but if I compare both then the work life balance in IBM is great also it provides the facilities that everyone wants CAB services, Work from home, No swipe in/out so 9hr is not mandatory, only has a fixed component and great management which is always helpful. So, overall great experience so far.

Dislikes

Nothing so far. IBM is great MNC.
