How much time IBM takes to release offer letter, it's been 1+ month waiting

After all rounds cleared successfully during HR discussion for offer she told they can't offer more than my current. If that was the case why can't they inform initially before taking interview.

Worst experience with IBM.

SAP Consultant

I resigned recently and proposed date of 30days. I know that it's officially 90days. So i talked to my manager. He said he Will get back to me. I again send a reminder mail to check into this. Without replying to that mail, they rejected my proposed dqte and approved fo 90days

What to do now? I am actually in active project from 2years and it extended for another 6months .
They didn't even consider my extra leaves and buy out.

What options do i have

I have done my final HR discussion with cognizant for a generic data engineer role 25 days back but still not any update or offer letter.
I have mailed multiple times to Hr for an update but they are not responding. I am too frustrated, not getting what I would have to do.

I was interning with a logistics visibility company called FourKites. (SDE Intern)
Joined in June 2023 and left in March 2024.
They made us work like mules. As interns, we used to do same work as that of SDE-1 and SDE-2 . Bug fixes, working on features, automation , QA, everything we did for 25k stipend hoping that we would get PPO in the end.
In March, they told us that only 6 out of 40 interns will be given PPO, rest all can fuck off by 31 may. I resigned the same day but still haven't gotten a single OA except for IBM and IBM didn't reply after the OA.
I feel frustrated and lost.

Internship Scams

I had an interview with Capgemini for BA profile around 23rd February. It went amazing. Got selected for second round. They asked for details like UAN card and previous salary slips and offer letters to schedule a client interview.

It sounded weird but I provided the details because I couldn't think of any way they can misuse the information.

It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard from them. 

Is this usual practice? Personally haven't come across such a situation before.

Capgemini ghosting after selecting!

This was my pathetic interview experience with Acceldata india with a very unprofessional and lying recruiter. This story has a satisfying ending.

I attended 6 rounds of interviews in 1 month and completed a take home assignment. I cleared all the rounds and even had a manager discussion about my onboarding. All good so far. 

Few days later the recruiter called back and said we need one more round (8th round) with the director who sits in US office. I said Ok and he scheduled this call on a Friday 10pm at night. 

At 9:55pm I tried to join the meeting link he sent but the link was not working. I tried in different browsers, different laptop, different internet connection. No luck. 

So I reached out to recruiter on mobile and he doesn't pick up. I know he's available because he was on call with someone else. I even tried reaching him via a different phone number but still no luck. Imagine the anxiety and panic I had to go through since I felt that it was my fault. 

On, next day he casually calls me in the morning to say that "Sorry I tried calling you 2 days ago but your mobile was unreachable (which is a plain lie). He says he cancelled the meeting because he found another candidate with lower salary.

That's fine, and I don't give a damn at this point. But I asked why didn't he send meeting cancelled email so I didn't have to panic on a friday late night. He casually says "Sorry about that". That's the last I hear of him. No response after that. 

All this after going through 8 rounds of interviews and a take home assignment. All because this a--hole recruiter lied to my face and couldn't send a simple email. 

Funny thing is: Another recruiter reached out to me 3 months later for the same role. Apparently the candidate they hired instead of me backed out at the last miniute. 🤣

If you get a chance to interview at AccelData, trust me, please don't waste your time. The company and the recruiting practises are not worth your time, even if you are jobless.

Don't bother interview with AccelData

This is EXACTLY one of the ways this platform is meant to be used. Call out the BS and NAME THE DAMN COMPANY. Dodged a bullet there OP.

..hi all
My final hr round completed on aug 24 and I got verbal confirmation about offer letter. Till now I didn't received OL and status shows decision pending 5th time. One sent one follow up mail.

Work culture has become ultra toxic. Managers have started nano managing and literally are a pain in the ass. Product giving unrealistic timelines and leadership agreeing on the same without even consulting the developers and even if the developers are raising concerns, no fucks are given infact they are made to realise that this is how a startup should work. Literally everyone is working their asses off and still unable to meet the deadlines. Empathy is completely lost and WLB is a sham. People including me want to switch but are not even getting time to prepare.

Rant on Swiggy wlb

This is all trickling down from the Leadership, they are trying to cut down costs by any means. Already had one round of layoffs, now they are doing silent layoffs in the form of PIPs. 
  
 Also, Leaders have lost the long term focus and are trying to find out more and more short term projects related to profitability.  
  
 There was always this pressure of work, but in the past 7-8 months this has become unbearable with no empathy in the organisation.

Analytics Manager

Anyone from IBM, specially HR? 
I have a veru disappointing experience with IBM recruitment HR. 
First they said my technical interview is cleared, after a month of patience, and l follow ups, HR says the skill we are looking for is not matched with what skills you have!

I want to take some serious action against the Hiring HR.
Could anyone suggest how can I proceed?

IBM- Bad hiring practices

Hi folks,
Do anyone know infosys do bgv before or after releasing offer letter. As from the details submitted in portal do they undergo bgv?
Or once released OL. They do bgv.
Thanks

Few months back I was put under pip. It's a well known org and I had been only with them for 1.5 months and in probation when they did this. Their reason: 'its just a hygiene thing' and that I'm 'too introverted' and should 'interact more than just focusing on work.' 

I'm certain it might be because of team biasness and bootlicking since manager claimed my work has no issues during our meeting. 

Fast forward to 3 months later, I'm yet to receive a pip plan or a judgement criteria or any written communication for the same. I'm not sure if I have any job security or when will the pip end (all attempts to get clarity on this were refuted). 

What should I do? Should I wait for things to become clear or quit. It's been only 6 months and I'm worried switching so early will look bad 😔 on my cv. My notice is 90 days.

After 2.5 months wait for offer letter from IBM I get this,"We would like to inform you that we will not be taking your candidature forward"
