IBM Senior Application Architect Reviews

Likes

Over all good, it is your luck getting good project and manager. Upskill and certification is mandatory for senior resources.

Dislikes

Everything in Managers's hand. Not addressed employees concerns. You have work under shift timings though you are developer as most of the projects are US projects.

Likes

Benefits like Medical insurance and good office.

Dislikes

There is no work life balance at all. Appraisal is very less and promotion is very tough as it all depends on the manager however good you are.

Dislikes

poor management, Poor quality of work, bad politics, not following process, old non technical managers who r there from 20+ years and they r just relying on their technical lead, who also doesn't know how to talk and give respect to juniors, plus how to support teammates. Totally negative environment and failure management.

They considered me for H1b and filed my petition in 8 months after my joining

Dislikes

After receiving H1B they never approved my travel and you are forced to stay there for less salary. Don't take joining bonus, get maximum take home salary before joining. In percentage you will receive like 8-10 percent hike but in 3 years you will be less paid and have less knowledge as you work for some client.

I am working in IBM Security. IBM got really good work-life balance. The work hours are flexible, no one will pressurize you into doing things.

Dislikes

The hikes are not that great. Even switching projects is a very difficult. If you are a graduate hire then you must atleast work for 18 months in the initial project, no matter you are interested or not.
