Great place to work, but not quite like the other big tech companies
Great place to work, but not quite like the other big tech companies
Employee discounts, a chance to work from home often, great on-site perks such as a game room, free coffee, and great day-long celebrations, a chance to make big impacts (even as an intern), and the opportunity to work with many different teams from all over the world.
Basically, they are almost as good as all of the other big tech companies (Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, etc.), but they aren't quite there. The pay is based off of credits toward a degree and is only decent. Though there is flexibility and cool on-site benefits, most of the employees, especially all of management, are much older, so the atmosphere is more serious than desirable.
At least from the teams I've seen, IBM needs some younger management. Current management does a decent job at producing results, but the work environment would be more enjoyable with a more understanding management.
