Working at IBM is good from career and work perspectives, but it's actually not that great from an employer's perspective.
In IBM, the workload on an employee is so hectic that one cannot afford time for himself in a day.
Deep dives on pointers were emphasized. They asked about direct register access using pointer methods and common mistakes like wild pointers. The focus for this role is on embedded RTOS and bare-metal implementation of solutions.
The interview was thorough; the people were deceivingly nice.
Fairly easy. I got a good reference, and they needed Linux engineers for a future project. The Linux project never panned out, but I got to work on some very good projects, including work on the Cell BE processor and the first petaflop supercomputer
