I started out right after my graduation, joined through campus placement. I haven't been able to leave due to all sorts of reasons, it's been over 7+ years now. Let me tell you I have been looking for jobs outside from past 1.5+ years and still searching. It's a request to all freshers to NOT start your work life with IBM! It pays poorly, no job satisfaction, managers are biased no job security. Even after 7+ years my package is still about 5 lacs !! I cry everyday to get up and go to work because I have to support myself. But if I had another option even with same package I would have left IBM long time back !...Read More

There's no job security you have in IBM even if you give your best, should be having good terms with manager.

Work life balance, Bluepoints, free tea, free classes trainings, motovate for certifications.
Manager are biggest problem they refuse innovation , idea, automations so that no employee can compete challange with them. And hire less relevent employee to look smart.

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

Benefits like Medical insurance and good office.
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.

1. Good work-life balance. 2. Hybrid model with 3 days in office. 3. Positive work culture. 4. Access to free learning resources like Udemy.
1. Low yearly salary hikes (2-7%). 2. No cab facility provided. 3. Promotion process needs improvement. 4. Employee benefits could be enhanced.

IBM provides opportunities for cross learning which is good but due to lot of work pressure you will not be able to take benefit of that
No work life balance, No hikes, No promotion, micro management, No extra activities, no employee benefits. It is a waste company to work

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

IBM has a better work life balance that I have seen in my work duration. Better growth and learning objectives and wide platforms for upgrade. Salary hikes also average as other companies purely depends on manager. Overall a great company to work :)
Appraisals are below industry standards. All others things are well and good

We can learn many things in that company as they have given free access for all learning platform. It totally depends on you how u utilise it.
I don’t have idea about other projects inside the company, but the project which I was working was a low budget project then too those managers were not living that project and it was a worst project , as I am a fresher it was not good to start Carrer like that.

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.
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.

Their work life balance is really good but their core work is not up to mark . So I will suggest look for different companies if you want to grow your learnings and career . The options for learning different tech through courses are available but the core work is not up to mark so you are hoping to learn through work is not available
Learning’s through core work is not good

The way these people do fraud with employees specially the higher management in insurance domain and financial services.
The higher management never wants the growth of employees.

Nothing as such, it was good company earlier but now.
No good projects in IBM Consulting, all are support projects. If you don't get project with in 2 months, then you are fired(forcefully resignation). Also without PR it's difficult to get project. For everything management will threat to put you in PIP. No salary hike.
