Pros

Adequate salary; benefits are in-line with other companies

Cons

Company desperately trying to figure out what it wants to be, which leads to turmoil. The latest headlong lurch is to become a consultancy. Very easy to feel disconnected from anything beyond your immediate work group. Appears to have inherited the ageist tendencies of its parent, IBM. New-collar and offshore workers welcome. Experienced, domestic workers, folks-not so much.

Pros

In my case, I’ve found a spot with some interesting challenges and the flexibility I need to achieve an acceptable work/life balance.

Cons

Compensation. Salary adjustments while Kyndryl was part of IBM were minuscule and currently it appears that only those who have an offer for a new job are offered a raise in hopes they’ll stay. Attrition is extremely high, though I think that’s true in most shops these days. Seem to have trouble attracting talent. Tons of open positions resulting in gaps in capabilities. It feels like they took every awful process from IBM and cloned it. It’s a mess with no formal feedback channel to suggest improvements and/or express frustrations.

Pros

If you like a large company culture, a process and rules for every activity, and an environment like IBM in a smaller footprint, this is the place for you

Cons

Executive leadership runs company thru spreadsheets. All emphasis on finances...for Kyndryl. Internal politics takes priority over what's best for the client. Lots of slide ware without actual clients to reference. Everything takes 3x longer to do to navigate the bureaucracy.
