Software Engineer Interview Experience - Lenexa, Kansas
Process
I met with a recruiter at the Spring Engineering Career Fair at the University of Iowa. He took my resume, and we talked a little.
Shortly afterward, I received an e-mail from IBM asking to set up a phone interview. A couple of hours after the phone interview, I received an email from a hiring manager asking what I would expect as a salary.
Finally, over the course of about two weeks, I had to fill out an application and take an aptitude test.

I honestly enjoy my work, though I'm sure it's boring to some people. I feel that they do try to extend honest compensation to those that deserve it.Cons: The workplace is garbage, disorganized. I've never seen a place run as wildly as IBM in its current form. Each week feels like a different project.
- 4.0Changed projects too often to truly establish becoming a true expert in any particular projectSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeLenexa, Kansas, United StatesOctober 7, 2013Pros: Company name and size: Great work environment from the point of the people. Casual dress code, lunch times, and allowance to run errands if needed.Cons: Projects change every couple of years, so you cannot really become a true expert at a single project. Always expected to learn new technologies, then not understood when a learning curve comes into play. Personal reviews happen every six months.
