IBM Subject Matter Expert(Sme) salaries in Bangalore / Bengaluru

Good job security. Work is decent. Work-life balance depends on your team, good enough for me. Flexible timing. WFH has been around since ages here.

Dislikes

Your pay is what you can bargain for at joining, it remains pretty much the same then. Pay raises are insignificant, lower than inflation. Bonuses are negligible. A lot of clueless people. If you are average, you are usually the smarter one in your team.

Likes

Lot of projects available to engage people. More Onsite opportunity .

Dislikes

Skills are under utilized due to project pressure. Salary is low compared to market standard and appraisal takes lot of time. Insurance policy is poor.

Likes

No hike no appraisal only work pressure. Avg 2% hike u will get if you don't want to ruin your career join some other company or if joining ibm leave this just after 1 yr if you want your financial growth.

Dislikes

No appraisal no salary hike no band promotion, new joini will get salary more than you. No manager support, internal politics is also.

No doubt working with prestigious organisation like IBM is a eye catcher. Company will force you to learn anytime. So you will learn a lot through, learning assignment , free premium udemy, wfh facility.

Dislikes

Only Salary. What you get at the time of joining , will be fixed. No increment in any manner. There is no standard to that. So make sure ,you ask higher. They will deny on this but it is true. It is not Limited to me having 3 yrs in IBM but others who has 7 years too has the same issue.

Likes

Dislikes
