Pretty flexible work times, except if you have to work with IBMers overseas. You have to use your personal hours, dinner/breakfast time, to be on calls with different time zones. No personal time is available anymore.
Work comes in waves. When it's busy, it's really stressful.
We are finally starting to hire some new hires and new blood into the company. Still pretty top-heavy and hard to move up.
It seems like our budget for anything is smaller and smaller every year, even when we are reporting record profits. Healthcare benefits aren't great, with a lot of out-of-pocket costs. They are outsourcing a lot.
Our management, up to the 3rd line, is doing the best they can.
Interviewed with managers and engineers in and out of the team. People are really nice there. Friendly working environment. Interviews are relatively short (30 minutes per interview). Waited for a month and still pending results.
I am a longtime employee and have no knowledge of the current interview practices.
Recruited at an on-campus job fair. Flown out to IBM Poughkeepsie to go through a full day of interviewing with at least 8 people. The interview was entirely behavioral, with general technical questions.
