IBM

The company allows you to experience various technologies, as within it, there are diverse projects for varied clients, even enabling area migration.

Personally, I don't know many cases of professionals being laid off. When a project ends or when a client terminates the contract, there is an effort to allocate employees to other projects/clients.

The company encourages (practically demands) that employees obtain certifications and study to specialize further.

Great benefits.

Your experience will be completely dictated by the client you are allocated to and the people manager assigned to you. Promotions within the company are virtually non-existent. The overwhelming majority of my colleagues who managed to get a promotion needed to threaten to leave the company, as IBM imposes several obstacles in the form of certifications and accumulation of positive feedback to prevent the employee from getting a promotion. And if you eventually get a good promotion, it's unlikely any project will want to keep you, as there is formalized pressure for projects to be able to work with the cheapest possible employees.

Como funcionário, não existe um roadmap para uma promoção, e toda e qualquer promoção precisa da aprovação do cliente. Nenhum cliente em sã consciência vai concordar em pagar mais para receber o mesmo serviço.

Eu pessoalmente não pretendo continuar insistindo em cursos e certificações, e nem irei ameaçar a empresa para conseguir um aumento, pois, se eu receber uma proposta melhor, eu prefiro simplesmente sair.
