Slow Workplace

Associate Software Engineer (Former Employee) - Bengaluru - November 20, 2023

Everything moves very slow and work can be done in 2 or 3 months. Everything goes through 6-7 different levels of approvals. Felt like a sloth every time I was working.

There are really good projects and teams ,, worse projects and teams too

Software Engineer (Former Employee) - Bangalore, Karnataka - October 5, 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?Work from home, Less work, coz of more processes. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Non practical policies ex. 100% utilisation, identify some code reuse from ibm code repository, launching coding competitions to all ibmers and finally forced to declare winners from within the same project ; managers and leads with no technical understanding ; pressure from management to manipulate like showing fake code reuse,, denial of our leaves arguing abt utilisation. This s abt one project I worked on , there were other good projects and good managers What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Depends on project you are in and your lead and managerWhat is a typical day like for you at the company?Do some minimum work ,, try to socialise and keep good company with others and managers.
