Pros

IBM is a nice place to be if you want a long career. There are plenty of tools to help you learn and grow.

People are usually nice, and you will have an opportunity to work on different areas with different clients.

Cons

Things can be slow. It took me 5 years to leave an account in which I was TUBeD when I first joined IBM. It took me 10 months after getting the approval for the account to actually let me go, which was a draining period. I was this close to resigning and leaving IBM.

Advice to Management

We need more clarity on the processes and more flexibility on how to move between accounts and teams, and how to upskill in different areas of interest.

Salaries for band 6 and 7 are very low compared to the market. You need to reconsider that, or you will lose talent.
