IBM

I don’t think there is any reason to work for IBM.

First of all, they lied in the job description and interviews. I was told the internship would be fully remote, and when I joined, it wasn’t. It was fully offline, and I worked from the customer’s premises. The work environment was horrible; it was not clean, had no toilets, and we were not allowed to leave before 4 PM.

I immediately resigned, and even that didn’t go well. My manager kept stalling my resignation; he was not replying to any of my emails or calls for 10 days. When I finally got his approval on the resignation, HR made me sign a document stating I had received my full salary payment, even though I hadn’t. They also told me I would need to wait for 2 weeks from my last working day to receive my employment documents, and I waited much longer as the HR offboarding employee was on vacation. They made me lose an employment opportunity at another company because of this delay.

Hire competent managers that care for their employees. Stop relying on disrespectful and lazy HR employees. Respect your employees for them to respect you back!
