A job at IBM comes with a lot of comfort, but it can make you stagnant with respect to upskilling and job satisfaction
Work-Life Balance:
- No strictness of logging in to complete work hours.
- Hybrid work model.
- Leniency in dress code.
Manager-driven company, hence a lot of biasness is observed. Takes a long time to get a promotion as it totally depends on the equation with the manager. Almost non-existent increment. Leave Policy. Job satisfaction.
The increment and promotion should be solely based on performance and a lot of transparency. When a resource is assigned to a project for his/her skill, then he/she should be assigned with that work only and not other work which does not align with his skillset. For example, assigning an automation tester with only manual testing.
Functional testing is indeed important, but if an automation tester is upskilling and trying to grow, then assigning him/her with only manual work doesn't only affect his/her job satisfaction, but stops his/her growth as well.
