The people are very experienced and there are a few interesting projects happening.
I have had both good managers and bad ones; te disheartening part is that there is no way we can complain about most bad ones. The hikes and appraisals are peanuts even with a great performance review; almost no career growth.

Is it a good place to grow as a dev? I know pay is not great but I won’t be staying there for more than 2-3 years. Is overtime frequent? I have a new grad offer in a Canadian CIC

I’m expecting to receive an offer from IBM today. The recruiter has told me the offer needs one more approval before she can discuss it with me. When I told them my target salary, they didn’t seem put off by it at all, so I think I should have asked for more. 😔. I was also reviewing their medical ...Read more
Google is IBM-ifying. Less perks, less pay, less fun, more bureaucracy and performance review, etc. My cope is that we’ll go back to party time when the economy is good again. But, don’t think a company has every un-IBMified after beginning the descent. Has it ever happened? Is it a one way street?...Read more
Hi, For another project, I have compiled LinkedIn's top 10 (50) companies of 2021 and their respective Glassdoor ratings. When reviewing, I noticed that Amazon was the only employer that does not show race/ethnicity reviews. Due to Amazon's high review count, It's extremely difficult to believe emp...Read more
My friend wants to see if they can take unpaid time off for 2 weeks at IBM. Is this a thing that will be looked down upon? Will it affect their professional career at IBM in a negative way? They're concerned about their manager not giving them good reviews and looking down upon them. #mentalhealth ...Read more
Don’t know much about it. Know at least one person who said it’s utter crap and even IBM doesn’t use it. On the flip side google seems to return mostly positive reviews. Any insights?

Does IBM ever revise an offer twice? For example they gave you an initial offer and you asked for a compensation review, they came back with another offer and you want to push it a little more since you now have an offer from another company. Does IBM negotiate twice? Also, can you ask for an exten...Read more
