No doubt IBM is a great company with rich culture. But I am working for a client(EY)-night shift-7:30p.m-4:30 a.m. But they are not providing night shift allowance. Not even food allowance. Although cab facility is there( Only for night shift). Sometimes I saw our manager is doing micro management. Not a good experience. Not recommending this position/job. If you are working directly for IBM then thats fine. But if you are working for clients then you need to think twice.

Dislikes

IBM is a good company. But got 2% increment after one year. Salary is not equal to work load.

Likes

Good place to work. Management provides lots of opportunities to learn and upskill yourself. Work life balance depends on which team you're part of.

Dislikes

Salary is on the lower side compared to similar players in the market.

Likes

Good exposure and learnt a lot since you have to learn to do things across various functions as there is no support from management

Dislikes

...ven if you go for 11 out of 12 days and escalating against employees on this. Inspite of being the best performer, no appreciation email or blue points ever received, no bonus as contractors are not eligible for it inspite of working 12+ hrs a day and no hike, no benefits, no wfh, not able to leave early and mandatory campus hiring events outside of regular work with no credit for it, mandatory going for office lunches and events and need to pay for yourself in pathetic food places.
