Pros

IBM is often regarded as having better work-life balance compared to some other IT service providers, although this may differ depending on the project.

Cons

Salaries are competitive but may fall short compared to those offered by some other leading Indian IT firms, particularly for entry-level roles. Employees mention that career progression can be slower, particularly in certain technical roles, when compared to the more dynamic environments of startups or smaller companies.
