IBM Work Experiences
- 3.0Learned a lot and met great people, but it felt old-fashioned. It needs a modern approach to workSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeGalway, IrelandMarch 27, 2017Pros: Great people; I learned a lot over the course of my internship. I had a mentor assigned to me that I could ask all the basic questions to at the beginning, without feeling stupid. After a small amount of time, the questions were few and far between. Fun work outings, sports, etc.Cons: The office was very old-fashioned, boring, and lacking life. However, I believe this was expected to change to a more open-plan layout. I worked with teams remotely instead of working with those who were sitting right beside me. There was a huge workload, which left little time to unwind. There was not enough opportunity to be creative, perhaps due to working in automated testing.
