Life at IBM GTS
Pros: Good Flexibility about working hours, shifts, Work From Home Opportunities at the time of essential requirement. Good support from management during personal, family and health related issues.
Cons: Technical learning opportunities are less and such requests are not entertained. Switching accounts/projects etc are very difficult. Even if you arrange personal self funded training, its not possible to get into your desired roles and responsibilities hence your personal learnings wont be utilized and eventually you forget everything you learnt by yourself. You need to continue to follow the same old orthodox process and policies which are most of them irrelevant in the currently changing environment. You cannot ask Why because that concept is not there there at all. Salary revision/appraisal is not there at all hence you will be continuing getting the same package year after year with no initiative from the management side. Too much frugality in place.
