IBM treats acquired employees poorly
IBM treats acquired employees poorly
Required 40 hours of training every year.
If you're working for a company they have acquired, you are not valuable. As they have trouble with stockholders and not meeting expectations most quarters (met once since the company I worked for was acquired), they have to find solutions to make them happy, like cutting staff. They often leave areas very shorthanded with this.
Deals made when companies are acquired often result in a huge loss of PTO.
- Poor work-life balance
- Poor benefits due to insuring large numbers of retirees.

The aptitude test was the first round. It had a lot of number series related questions and was a bit challenging. However, if you prepare with previous year question papers, it would be quite easy. The next section was full of general aptitude quest

The interview process is so challenging, with a lot of questions. Interviews are a bit tough because of the problems they asked. They asked about myself, some problems on DSA, and a lot of DBMS-related questions.
