IBM Staff Software Engineer salaries in India

...des many free trainings and courses that one could use to up skill themselves. 2) There is a salary check software that flags if an employees salary is an outlier and the manager can increase the salary according to it for the employee if they like.

Dislikes

1) There is hardly any development work in India. All the good work and projects are done in US 2) The work life balance is horrible. Most of the work needs to be approved by US teams, so I had to keep on coordinating with US members at their working out even after working all day. 3) IBM can move you internally in any teams at their wish any time irrespective of the time zones and the profile. I was hired as a Developer, but was moved in 4 different teams in an year from each with different profile like manual testing, automated testing, systems management. 4) The quality of work is very unsatisfactory.

...experience as there won't be any chance for you to get a project of your desire. Salary benefits and hikes are minimal. Forget about promotions, you can be in the same position even during your retirement. IBM is managed by managers and managers are managed by their loyal puppets.

...oject 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.
