IBM Employer Reviews

My day would start at 9am with the team coming together for a small meeting & reviews of the previous day of what we have done & a motivational note from our manager to kick start the day with energy and enthusiasm. We would proceed to our chambers and start reviewing resumes to check eligible candidates who suit the criteria.Having a background of – more... an IT Engineer ,HR was something new to me so it was a challenge and i learnt a lot of things..recruiting & selecting candidates isn't a very easy job.. but i just loved the job. Had a wonderful Management & a supportive team to work with made work easy & fun! We were a team of 7...who recruited IT engineers for various processes & teams in IBM India. Being good at this job i was moved to the HR payroll team where we had to handle & review the payslip processing team of IBM (This team is responsible for generating payslips of all IBM India employees all over India) It was a great challenge indeed to review 1000's of payslips.. But i learnt a lot about the way it works..Taxation, HRA, Claims etc.whole team had to work hand in hand to review & process the slips. When it comes to payslips a small mistake can cause a disaster,after all its the question of ones money an bread & butter. But with all that stress,i loved the place & the environment and people around. – less

IBM is a very flexible company where we can balance our work life.
The project I was working was very creative and full of new ideas.
Very much dedicated to the clients. C-Workers were ready to help out at any time. Every Friday, there used to be fun at work. All the employees used to work together. Only during the release times, we had to stretch, – more... which we call dedication. – less

Worked for IBM for 26.5 years. Responsible for all aspects of taking care of a computer room. Moves, changes, break fix. Was laid off.

IBM India provides its employees an excellent platform to upgrade their skills and knowledge at various stages of their carrier which help them to keep at pace with the latest development as well as excel in their deliverables

I enjoyed my job duties at IBM. I liked the business to business aspect. I left this position to take the position at Time Warner Cable. Time Warner was a much closer location for me.

I enjoyed working @ IBM. I worked there for about 20yrs, all but 6 as a contractor.
Even working as a contractor- a second class citizen- It was a great place to work.
As an IBMer, the Benefits were terrific.
I learned a couple of new programming Languages, Wrote some challenging programs that saved thousands of man hours and were used through out the – more... CWS account.
The management style was very laid back. Maybe a bit too much. It was difficult to tell if the self assigned projects were in the department Scope, all though the final results were well accalaimed.

I would go Back again, if the opportunity arose. – less

Having the ability to work from a remote location is a great benefit.

Good for freshers and can learn lots of thing thru training. Giving lot of flexibility in working hours.

All people are good but in Google Adwords process i dont know about others. Salary and all other benifits are there in the IBM

Not a place to start building a career.

Management is sloppy, there is no incentive to work harder.

I feel fortunate to have worked for one of the best companies. It was truly a great experience and the people I worked with were awesome.

Unfortunately upper management changed over the years and their focus of EPS became the primary driver each quarter. That in itself is not a bad thing but to run your company on EPS through cost reduction of letting – more... valuable employees go is not only shortsighted but very foolish. Through the continued annual to semi-annual rounds of lays for the last 17 years developed a culture of paranoid individuals with good reason. Contributing and have a great performance evaluation did not save you from the cuts when they came. So why give your all - it's just a matter of time before you get cut. – less

What can anyone say about IBM other than they are a true stalwart in the business world, overtly desirable to work for and a wonderful anchor to any resume. The work/life balance there is second to none as are the benefits, however the compensation is overtly conservative and one of the major drawbacks but this should deter no one from exploring a professional/career – more... relationship. – less
