Dislikes

Training is not up to the mark and compensation is below the market standard. Senior management is not skilled enough in technologies and that creates adverse condition for a good employee. You may not find your likely people in a time sometimes. It's hard to get skilled professional most of the time. Adhering to latest technologies in projects rate is very low.

Dislikes

Compensation is poor, and ratings doesn't matters in case of the appraisals. Although they have introduced checkpoint in which one gets reviewed quarterly but I worked so hard in one project but it got over before my appraisal and thus I received worst appraisal. Thankfully I got opportunity to move out of IBM. Don't expect free coffee/tea , even you will not get paper cups and paper tissues.
