IBM Brand name attached now. Work Culture is good. People usually don't indulge in politics. Job security is excellent. No layoffs during the pandemic. Learning opportunities are there but you need to spend time in the organization to get that. Lots of emphasis on one's tenure in the organization. More the number of years spent, more respect the person gets. Management is good and pretty cool about things. No micro management.

Dislikes

Salary is on the lower side than the market. Also the appraisals are not consistent. Career growth will become stagnant is there is not much job role change when one gets promoted. There are less opportunities for IJP's Yet to get the benefit of being an IBM company. This should reflect in people getting more job opportunities to go to internally.

Access to free Red Hat certification. Quarterly bonus payout. Not compulsory to come to office and can continue to work from home.

Dislikes

No appraisal cycle. Entirely up to manager whether to give appraisal and if the current manager leaves, then back to square one where need to prove yourself again. One needs to be extremely good at show-off. Do less and talk more as if the reverse is done thinking let the work speak then you are no way moving ahead.

a technical project manager

Deadend

Hi, I'm here to share a part of my journey from the past 12 years in my career, I started from a package of 3.6LPA in 2013 at iGate and due to a few bad decisions on my career and worthless advices from people who are always pessimistic about the industry, I switched two companies and landed in a start-up with 2.4LPA. I worked hard nearly 8-16hrs a day single handed researched, built and managed an entire vertical of a project for 8 years. When the company didn't value my contribution and thought I was too young to become a manager, I had a package of 6LPA and Senior developer in designation. I switched for obvious reasons to a TL role for 12LPA and now at the same company I'm a TPM on the basis of my contribution with 48LPA as a fixed component. I feel outclassed in terms of having a fancy CV with certifications, I feel like CTC has hit a peak with 48LPA being fixed and nearly 40% in Variable. Most companies are hesitant to hire me because of this. What should be my next move?
