...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.
