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.
To folks at IBM, Sorry about Layoffs. I read Marketing and communications teams were laid off. Please DM if Referrals are needed.
I am not sure whether this is good or bad for HashiCorp, given IBM's poor reputation with acquisitions, innovation, and keeping or attracting talent but good acquisition for IBM. I always thought HashiCorp had a differentiating set of products in a hot multicloud space. It's strange they're selling ...Read more

Hello, I have 2+ YOE and currently exploring new opportunities. Would anyone be able to help me out with an IBM referral?
So I read that Arvind Krishna will become the new CEO as Rometty steps down. How do current employees feel about the leadership change? How will the company's growth and culture be impacted? I'm in the interview process and would appreciate info about where the company is headed and how people feel...Read more
Is google becoming like ibm.. seems so far behind on every innovation and resting on past laurels.
I keep seeing IBM pop up all over research. More so, they jump head first trying to monetize fringe tech. What's your take, Blind, do they have the right moonshots, people working on them, and company support? Is IBM research significantly differently from "core" IBM?
I never would have thought that I would be considering an offer from IBM.....doing hybrid cloud architecture work using Azure and Open shift. Words of wisdom?

Fellow Blinders, looks like IBM has done the ultimatum on the RTO. Is it still flexible among the teams or all individuals are impacted? Tc:275K #remotework #wfh #hybrid
My IBM offer letter does not mention my band level, which the recruiter said would be band 8. Is this normal? Should I be worried that my band level is not in the offer letter? Will the band level be updated in IBM employee systems? #ibm #offerletter #offer #tech
IBM executives told comply to RTO or say goodbye. No wonder IBM continues to slide into irrelevance. An alliance contact told me today they are starting to enforce a lighter version in Red Hat - no doubt due to their new CRO - a typical lifer from IBM - sounds like an empty suit
The entire org is about to start undergoing massive layoffs. It’ll be done in two waves and from what I saw the severance packages will be pretty decent. The goal is to go from 200 or so to 75. It’s highly inefficient as is now with 50% or more really not working. Welcome to Garage services ! HRBP ...Read more
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
It looks like there are deep cuts across the board at IBM. I know of 20 people personally, that got 'RA'd today which is IBMs language for layoffs. Decent severance packages... 3 months pay and healthcare and other bonuses to help with COVID. #IBM #layoffs #Covid
Hi! New to Blind. 👋 How’s IBM’s design team doing? I couldn’t find posts on here about the design team. Thinking of applying but wanted to learn more on the growth of the design org as a whole first. Is now a good time to join? #ibm #ui/ux #design
