Software Engineer - UI Interview Experience - Austin, Texas
Process
I had a total of three interviews, with three people in attendance each time. They asked a lot of questions to gauge my personality and to understand the types of situations I had dealt with during my software engineering career.
I thought they had a friendly demeanor, and the questions were fair. I have not received an offer yet, but even so, I thought that they deserved a good review for the way they interviewed.
It is clear they have great management in Austin, and I would recommend anyone to work with the people I interviewed with.

- 4.0Relocation Great, Workload HeavySoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeAustin, Texas, United StatesApril 13, 2013Pros: IBM paid for relocation with some specific requirements to be eligible for it. They paid for a rental agency (apartment/house purchase). On-boarding treatment was satisfactory, if not the best.Cons: As the company itself is huge, learning and fitting into its internal system could take months. More likely, you will get assigned a quite heavy workload pretty soon before having enough time to learn things.

Large corporate experience.Cons: Organizationally, it is fairly chaotic. Changes every quarter, just when you start to get traction. A new product every 2-3 weeks with no cohesive strategy.
